The Lagos Appeal Court has thrown out the appeal of the PDP and its governorship candidate against the election of Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the APC gubernatorial candidate.
The Court of Appeal, Lagos Division, has dismissed an appeal by the PDP and its Governorship Candidate for Lagos State, Abdulazeez Adediran, against re-election of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and his deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat.
The court upheld the Sept. 25 decision of the Lagos State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal affirming the victory of Sanwo-Olu and Hamzat in the March 18 governorship poll.
It held that the appellants failed to prove their allegations of forgery and non-qualification against Mr Sanwo-Olu and his deputy.
