The Lagos Governorship Election Tribunal has dismissed the petition brought by Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour and the Labour Party (LP), separate from the petition filed by Olajide Adediran, also known as Jandor, of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Jandor contested the election of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Dr. Obafemi Hamzat in the Lagos State gubernatorial elections held on March 18.
Justice Mikhail Abdullah announced this decision while addressing the objections raised by respondents in the case.
Additionally, Chairman of the panel, Justice Arum Ashom, clarified that the court would first deliver judgment in the case of the PDP and its candidate before proceeding to provide its judgment in the petition of the Labour Party’s gubernatorial candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour.
Justice Ashom also announced that Justice Mikail Abdullahi would read the judgment on behalf of the panel.
