Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, arrived along with his wife, Dr. Ibijoke at about 11:04 am to cast their votes at Ward E, polling Unit 019, Femi Okunnu/Jakande, Eti-Osa Local Government Area, LCDA, Ikoyi Lagos, amid low turn out of voters.

The late arrival of ad-hoc staff of Lagos State Independent Electoral Commission, LASIEC, delayed the accreditation of the Governor and his wife, they were hence accredited by the presiding officer of LASIEC, for the Unit, Mr Bamigbade Rasak Temitope.

Sanwo-Olu, however, appealed to residents and all registered eligible voters to come out and exercise their voting rights and vote for their choice of candidates.

He also commended LASIEC officials on the peaceful conduct of the exercise so far.
