…as court delivers judgment on governor’s victory
Lagos State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal will on Monday deliver judgment on petitions brought before it after the 2023 election.
The judgement will be delivered on Monday, September 25.
Governorship candidate of the Labour Party, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, disclosed this.
Rhodes-Vivour via a post on X, said he has been told that the ruling will be delivered on Monday.
The LP flagbearer posted, “We have just been informed that judgement on our election petition at the tribunal will be delivered on Monday, the 25th of September.”
Rhodes-Vivour, alongside the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Abdul-Azeez Adediran approached the tribunal with their separate petitions.
Citing electoral fraud, among other claims, the two parties are asking the tribunal to nullify the re-election of governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the All Progressives Congress.
Each of them wants to be declared winner of the election.
