BREAKING: Court Takes Decision On Judgment In Rhodes-Vivour, Jandor’s Appeals

The Court of Appeal in Lagos has scheduled Wednesday, Nov. 15, to deliver judgment in the appeals filed by the governorship candidates of the Labour Party and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour and Abdulazeez Olajide Adediran, challenging the re-election of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

The Court of Appeal panel, led by Justice Yargata Nimpar, had reserved judgment in the two appeals a week prior after hearing arguments from the parties.

On September 25, the Election Petitions Tribunal had unanimously dismissed the two petitions and upheld the re-election of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and his deputy Obafemi Hamzat.

Rhodes-Vivour’s appeal contested the decision of the State Governorship Tribunal and raised issues related to the disqualification of Sanwo-Olu and Hamzat. Adediran’s appeal challenged the judgment of the Tribunal, which declared Governor Sanwo-Olu as the winner of the election, and raised concerns about the alleged false A Level WAEC Certificates presented by Sanwo-Olu.

The response from Sanwo-Olu and Hamzat’s counsel urged the court to dismiss the appeals, emphasizing that the appellants failed to prove their case before the lower tribunal. The judgment will be delivered by the Court of Appeal on November 15.
