Earlier in the day , the National Working Committee panel sent from Abuja to oversee the election had declared the primary invalid.
The panel , led by Mr . Clement Ebri, said the primary could not have held because the modality for its conduct was still being ironed out . But Balogun insisted that the poll held and it was valid .
“ It is my pleasure and delight to read the result of the election , conducted all over Lagos State, in all the 245 wards, to the public .
“ The results are as follows : Governor Akinwunmi Ambode recorded 72 ,901 votes; Mr . Babajide Sanwo- Olu had 970 , 851 votes .

OK na let's hear d explanation of oshimole as d NWC said no election held today. But Ambode should be ready to concede defeat and collapse his campaign organization to Sanwo-olu campaign team.

How I wish we could cut out of this sold state and form our lagoon state Let tinubu and other yorubas kill their self with greed.
Every one are just fighting for favoritism.

Hahaha

Clowns!

Only the NWC can declare a winner...

Wishful thinking...

Hmmmmmmm!!!!!

For Ambode to have pull such amount of votes then its show there is still hope for him if he eventually defects, him defecting to PDP might be the end of his political career with the likes of Jimi Agbaje and Femi Otedola eyeing the position in PDP(a case study of osun election) . In this case his chances now hangs on a balance of probability. I wish him good luck tho, this is the only chance to topple jagaban .

Yes we don dey wake up, start NL
You don pray, wash face, off alarm, abi na unto work things already?

The way Sanwo Olu came from no where one side and overtook Akinwunmi an incumbent you would see that politics is truly like a game of chess.
Whether or not he decides to run under another party, it just shows that many people are still until herd mentality, bandwagon approach and false loyalty.
I speak no more on this issue for now and leave indigenous Lagosians to secure their future.
Choose right
Vote right
Don't be afraid to go against popular opinion
It's your life
It's your future

We should be building stronger structures, systems and politics and not POLITICIANS

This results clearly shows that godfatherism has eaten deep into our democracy.
APC can't fight it.
Adams oshiomole campaigned against godfatherism in Edo state but why he accepts this result is still a mystery to me.

Shame!!!

Most times we are enemies to our selves...How can one man wield so much power.


I see why the north are ahead of us politically.

Tinubu on this one

Buhari, Osibanjo and Oshiomole are doing their best to void this nomination. They may end up causing a crises in Lagos that they never anticipated. The hatred/jealousy of Tinubu is driving them. But one thing i observed this time around is that the disaffection of Ambode started from the masses, not from Tinubu. Ambode could have still lost even the f Tinubu supported him cos not even the poor likes heaps of refuse in front of their houses or roads filled with pot holes.
This time around, its not just Tinubu they should fight. It's a fight that will engulf all of Lagos and Nigeria if care is not taken. Mark my words. Small things like this are how June 12 started.

Tinubu has spoken.

deal done

That’s a huge defeat oh, Lagos Royal Rumble Sanwo-Olu won chaiii

Stale news!
Any new developments?
Waiting for Ambode to concede ON YOUTUBE ONLY LIVE!!!!!!

Tired of all these fake, half and half gossip-blogs.

Shameless people! No matter how bad Ambode has fallen in the past weeks, A sitting governor would comfortably surpass mere 70k votes in his state.

Why make the rigging so obvious?

there was no election in Lagos. Sanwo-maga and his thugs intimated and beat up ambodes supporters. what a shame.

This is just embarrassing for Ambode. Not a lagosian but I find it strange that Ambode lacks the political sense of conforming and building loyalists. He must have stepped on many toes

Na which one we go believe now?


There's no doubt that the result of the primaries will be embarrassing to the incumbent. Especially cos of the method of voting used, only those who are proud to be associated with him will confidently queue in front of his posters. Others who seek political and financial gains from APC wouldn't dare

God alone knows the next Governor of Lagos State...

This your grammar has even detached you from Lagos and Yoruba already. Gunrun!

Everything turning around for PDP good

I don't think Ambode will accept defeat...he might take this up in court.

Sorry Ambo! U don fvck up big time u broke a very sacred law of power... u tried conquering ur Godfather* u challenged ur boss so sorry is ur case as ur boss is the Jagaban himself.
