The Supreme Court on Tuesday, December 19, reserved judgments in two appeals filed by Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, candidate of the Labour Party (LP) and his counterpart in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Azeez Adediran against the election of Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

The appeals by Rhodes-Vivour and Adeniran are against the earlier judgments of the Court of Appeal in Lagos, which affirmed the two decisions of the election tribunal which dismissed their petiton, challenging Sanwo-Olu’s victory in the last governorship election.
