The Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) appear to be heading for victory in the Saturday’s governorship election after recovering from the shock of the party’s unexpected defeat in last month’s presidential election in the state.
Early results uploaded on the INEC’s Result Viewing Portal (iRev) for Kwara State are also in favour of incumbent Governor Abdulrahman AbdulRasaq of the APC and Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party in the state.
Same applies to PDP’s Siminilaye Fubara in Rivers State and APC’s Prince Bassey Otu in Cross River.
For Kwara, Governor AbdulRasak recorded 867 votes in Oro Ward 1 against 456 for PDP’s Shuaib Yaman Abdullah. The governor also got 1788 votes in Oro Ward 2 while Abdullah received 600.
In Lagos, Labour Party’s governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, lost his polling unit 01 at Oshifila Street, Anifowoshe, Ikeja to Governor Sanwo-Olu.
Rhodes-Vivour polled only 18 votes to the governor’s 29 while Peoples Democratic Party’s Olajide Adeniran got only two.
