Affirming the victory on Saturday, the governorship election petitions tribunal sitting in Abeokuta struck out all the petition filed by Hon. Abiodun Akinlade of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM).

“This is the time to join hands with Governor Abiodun to move the state forward. His achievements in 100 days in office speaks volume of what to expect from him. Prince Dapo knows his onions, he will bring his business acumen to bear in the running of the state.
“I congratulate our governor, the APC and the good people of Ogun state,” he said.
