Voting is still on.

Before nko? He was sure going to win

Congrats to Ambode.
I am tempted to say you have already become the next lagos state governor.
May God help you and give you the wisdom to surpass and dwarf Fashola's achievements.

Can I hear true Lagosians say amen?

but the voting is still on. I won't believe this until final voting and declaration.


Even through I expect him to win.
