The All Progressives Congress, APC, has taken the lead in Saturday’s local government elections across Lagos State, as vote sorting and collation continue in the 57 local government areas and local council development areas.
Despite the generally peaceful nature of the exercise, voter turnout was notably low across many polling units.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who cast his ballot at his polling unit in the Adeniji-Adele area, addressed journalists shortly after voting.
He acknowledged early logistical hiccups that delayed the start of the process in some areas, attributing them to movement constraints.
As of 4:00 pm, unofficial updates from various polling units indicate that the APC was maintaining a clear lead in multiple areas, including Sanwo-Olu’s own polling unit 006 at St. Stevens Nursery and Primary School, Adeniji-Adele. Other strongholds where the ruling party showed dominance include Yaba, Somolu, Bariga, Ikeja and Agege.
Preliminary results from these locations suggest that the APC is ahead in both the chairmanship and councillorship races, with the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, trailing in second place and the Labour Party (LP) coming third.
Full results are expected to be announced by the Lagos State Independent Electoral Commission, LASIEC, once collation is concluded.
