The Labour party agent at the Lagos State collation objected to the Badagry result, saying that the result they have differed from what was announced.
When questioned on why the Party agent’s signature was on the result sheet, she said that the agent reported to her that the result was signed at gun point.
The Labour party agent raised the point that the ballots of 9 polling units at Lagos Mainland were not counted because thugs attacked the units. She expressed that Labour Party rejects the announced Lagos Mainland result.
