By BREAKING! HON. IBRAHIM LAYODEWWINS 4TH TERM RE-ELECTION IN BADAGRY, SETONJI ALSO VICTORIOUS
BlackBox Nigeria can say that in what seem to be unprecedented in the Badagry division of Lagos State, Honourable Ibrahim Layode of the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC who was first elected into the Lagos State House of Assembly in 2007 has yet again won a seat to represent Badagry Constituency 1 at the hallowed chambers, making it the fourth term in a roll.
Like SOB Agunbiade, Rotimi Olowo and Rotimi Abiru also win 4th term bids in Somolu
Popularly called OIL, Honourable Layode since the commencement of his political run at the lawmaking arm of the state against every prediction of having it difficult to return to the house had a comfortable lead with quite a margin to the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party’s, PDP candidate, Olugbenga Fayemi.
Layode polled the total of 12,099 (Twelve Thousand and Ninety- Nine) votes as against the PDP’s flag bearer with the total of 3,030 (Three Thousand and Thirty) votes.
Just in: Nollywood star, Desmond Elliot re-elected in Surulere
In a similar development, for the Badagry Constituency 2 position, Honourable Setonji David of the All Progressive Congress, APC also carried the day polling the total of 14, 532 (Fourteen Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty Two) votes against PDP’s 5,209 (Five Thousand, Two Hundred and Nine) votes.
It has never been any better for the All Progressives Congress, as you will recall that the ruling party had earlier won the Federal House of Representatives elections with the candidature of Hon. Babatunde Hunpe, which held two weeks.
With the victory of Layode and Hunpe, APC now holds all 40 seats at the State House of Assembly.
