Tribunal Dismisses Agbaje’s Petition, Upholds Ambode’s Election by wolesmile(m): 12:36am On Jul 02, 2015
The Lagos State Governorship Election
Petition Tribunal has upheld the victory
of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, who
was returned winner of the April 11,
2015 poll in Lagos State by the
Independent National Electoral
Commission.
The three-man tribunal, led by Justice
Muhammad Sirajo, dismissed the
petition filed by the Peoples Democratic
Party and its candidate, Jimi Agbaje,
seeking nullification of Ambode’s
victory.
Ambode polled 811,994 votes ahead of
his strongest contender, Agbaje, who
polled 659,788 votes to emerge the
first runner-up.
But Agbaje and the PDP had approached
the tribunal claiming that the April 11,
2015 governorship poll in Lagos State
was conducted in breach of the INEC’s
specified guidelines, adding that the said
election was fraught with irregularities.
But the tribunal on Wednesday, in a
ruling on the consolidated preliminary
objection of Ambode and his party, the
All Progressives Congress, against the
case of the petition, described Agbaje
and the PDP’s petition as incompetent
and therefore dismissed it.
