2023: Obi Overtakes Tinubu In Lagos - Premium Times by ShowYourCertificate(op): 6:06am On Feb 27, 2023
The Labour Party (LP)’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has overtaken his All Progressives Congress (APC) rival, Bola Tinubu, in Lagos State with the results of Saturday’s presidential elections declared in 17 out of the 20 local government areas of the state so far.

Although Mr Tinubu, a former governor of the state, has won more local government areas, he is trailing behind Mr Obi by 32,442 votes.


While Mr Tinubu, has triumphed in 10 local government areas, polling a total of 416,436 votes so far, Mr Obi is ahead in only seven local governments, but is leading the tally with 448,878 votes.

PREMIUM TIMES is on ground at the Lagos State Collation Centre for the Presidential Election.

The newspaper had reported how Mr Tinubu was narrowly leading the tally after the results had been declared in 12 local government areas.

But with results declared in more local government areas, Mr Obi caught up with him and subsequently overtook him.


The other two front-runners in the election – Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Rabiu Kwawanso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) – have yet to win any local government area in the state. While Atiku has polled 60,330 across the 17 local government areas where results have been declared so far, Kwankwaso has scored 6,870.

The 10 local government areas where Mr Tinubu has triumphed are Agege, Apapa, Badagry, Epe, Ibeju-Lekki, Ifako-Ijaiye, Ikorodu, Lagos Island, Lagos Mainland, and Surulere.

Mr Obi , on the other hand, has won Ajeromi-Ifelodun, Amuwo-Odofin, Eti-Osa, Ikeja, Kosofe, Oshodi-Isolo, and Somolu.

The three remaining local government areas where results are being expected are Mushin, Ojo, and Alimosho.

shocked The real deal is getting set. The structure of criminality, violence and corruption being dismantled, suffocated, and bulldozed by the people of conscience. This is posterity for Labour Party

Alimosho have already been won by Labour Party. Ojo is already dominated by LP again. Mushin is still contestable. This is a great showing for LP.

Their almighty Alimosho is out, Tinubu was trashed in a Yoruba and Hausa dominated area by a structureless party against a structured thurgery, Hooliganism, ballot box snatching, initimadation

The naira redesign caused poor outing by the Yoruba and it is a lesson wink
It will not happen again. wink

Btw, The three remaining local government areas where results are being expected are Mushin, Ojo, and Alimosho have not been called.

Over all, still leading with a million votes and constitutionally required 25% in every state announced so far. No candidate has achieved thst so far wink

Congrats my President-Elect Asiwaju Tinubu.

The North will actually be the saving grace of APC at the long run. The election looks like is going into a re-run between Atiku and Tinubu.

Alimosho is already out of the way. The heroine-drug plagued imposter and fugitive city boy have long lost the city.As I have educated you, Tinubu have lost Kastina state to Atiku He is not making headway @ present in Kaduna after 4 LGAs announced so far.

Kano is being split by mainly PDP and NNPP. Jigawa have gone to PDP. So where is Tinubu banking on down north? Meanwhile, Peter Obi have the other regions apart from NE and NW on possible lockdown

Maybe in Lagos.

In Delta state, LP got Massive votes (You saw how Festus Keyamo lost his Polling unit)
But INEC Still does not want to call the Results. huh

Then in Kano, Underage voting took place as Usual.

Why will there be a rerun election?

Bola Ahmed Tinubu has fulfilled the constitutionally required spread. He's on his way to gather simple majority to be declared the winner.

If it goes to a re-run which I predicted some months ago, Tinubu might edge Atiku with a little margin. Though anything can still happen and the election is still open.
