The Lagos state governorship election tribunal sitting in Ikeja, on Wednesday, July 1, 2015 dismissed the petition filed by Jimi Agbaje of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, against Akinwunmi Ambode of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Agbaje had petitioned the tribunal challenging the declaration of Ambode as the winner of the April 11, 2015 governorship election in the state.
However, the three-man tribunal led by Justice Muhammad Sirajo upheld that the petition was incompetent a lieu with the preliminary objection raised by Chief Wole Olanipekun.
More details to come.
