Lagos state’s presidential election has been won by Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s nominee for president.
As the results from all 20 LGAs in the state were tallied, Peter Obi defeated Bola Tinubu, the candidate for the All Progressives Congress.
Remember that the former two-time Lagos governor, Tinubu has always had a stronghold in the SouthWest region.
