The Supreme Court of Nigeria has postponed giving its decision in two legal suits brought forward by Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour of the Labour Party and Azeez Adediran (known as Jandor) from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Their appeals contest the election victory of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu in Lagos.A panel of five judges, led by Justice John Okoro, informed the involved parties that they will receive notification when the court reaches a verdict.
Present at the court session were Deputy Governor Femi Hamzat, State Secretary Abimbola Salu-Hundeyin, and other high-ranking officials from the Lagos State Government.Rhodes-Vivour and Adeniran’s appeals challenge the Court of Appeal in Lagos’ rulings, which upheld the decisions of the election tribunal dismissing their petitions that contested Sanwo-Olu’s win in the March 18 governorship election.
