Tribunal Dismisses PDP, Labour Party Petition Against Sanwo-Olu
In a significant development, the Lagos Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal has ruled to dismiss the petitions lodged by Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour of the Labour Party and Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). These petitions challenged the victory of Babajide Sanwo-Olu in the hotly contested March 18 governorship election.
Jandor, a prominent figure in Lagos politics, contested the outcome of the March 18 governorship election in Lagos state, contesting the wins of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Deputy Governor Dr. Obafemi Hamzat.
