Sanwo-Olu sworn in as Lagos State Governor

The All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Lagos State, Mr, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has on Wednesday, applauded the governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode for conceding to defeat.

Naija News reported earlier yesterday that the controversial governorship primary in Lagos State had produced Sanwo-Olu, who is the anointed candidate of the National Leader of APC.

The embattled governor had earlier today accepted defeat while addressed a Press Conference.

The governor also took time to appreciate Tinubu and the elders of the party.

He assured that he will initiate a smooth transition process and work with the party while still in office.

Reacting to Ambode’s action, Sanwo-Olu, in his official Twitter handle wrote: “I want to thank Governor Ambode for accepting defeat gracefully and also for his support and his words of encouragement concerning next year’s gubernatorial election. Lagos will be better.”

Ambode had, yesterday, protested the results from Tuesday’s All Progressives Congress primary election, saying that the primary has not been held.
