The governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Lagos State, GBADEBO RHODES-VIVOUR, has disagreed with the verdict of the Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal.

RHODES-VIVOUR who made this known via a press release stated that the essence of democracy lies not only in the ability to vote but also in the capacity to defend the integrity of that vote.

According to him, the laws allow Governorship candidates to challenge the decisions of the electoral tribunals and he has instructed his lawyers to appeal this judgment.

While urging his supporters and Lagosians in general to remain calm, peaceful, and law-abiding, RHODES-VIVOUR expressed the hope of getting substantial justice at the appellate courts.
