Lagos governorship election : PDP Reacts to Sanwo-Olu’s victory

Babajide Sanwo-Olu

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has reacted to Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s victory in the Lagos State governorship election held on Saturday in the state.
Sanwo-Olu defeated Jimi Agbaje of the PDP to emerge Governor-elect in Lagos State.
He polled 739,445 votes, while Agbaje got 206,141 votes.
Reacting, the Lagos State chapter of the PDP felicitated with the Governor-elect in the spirit of sportsmanship.
The PDP, in a terse statement by its spokesman, Taofiq Gani, however, said “if, for any reason, it has reasons to challenge the result announced it shall not hesitate to so do.
“Sanwo-Olu should eschew politics of retaliation and seclusion even as he warned against any act of vendetta against the outgoing Governor Akinwunmi Ambode.”
