The Chief Judge of Lagos State, Justice Kazeem Alogba, has inaugurated two LG Election Appeal Tribunals, to oversee complaints arising from the July 12 elections, according to The Punch reports.

Each panel, which will sit simultaneously on Lagos Island and in Ikeja, is made up of four chief magistrates and is chaired by a retired High Court judge.

Justice Taofikat Oyinkan-Abdullahi (Retd.) will lead the Lagos Island Panel, with Magistrates Michael Olubi, Olaitan Ajayi, Salamah Matepo, and Hotepo Lazarus as members.

The Ikeja panel will be chaired by Justice Sherifah Solebo (retd.) and will have Magistrates Davies Rasak, Oluwatosin Fowowe-Erusiafe, Adepeju Odusanya, and Lynda Balogun as members.

He reminded them of the importance of working within the time frame stipulated in the 2016 Amendment of the Lagos State Local Government Law, which provides 21 days for filing petitions after the declaration of election results and 45 days for tribunal sittings.

Africa is on the brink of a defining moment as A4S Limited launches the inaugural African Sustainability Perspectives (ASP) 2025 summit—an unprecedented gathering poised to reshape the continent’s sustainability journey. More than just another conference, ASP 2025 is a bold call to action, aligning Africa’s unique challenges and opportunities with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

With just five years left on the clock to meet the 2030 SDG targets, Africa stands at a crucial crossroads. ASP 2025 will provide a high-impact platform to examine the continent’s progress, confront its most urgent environmental and governance challenges, and spark conversations that drive local action with global relevance. This event isn’t merely asking, “What is sustainability?”—it is redefining the question and demanding clear, practical answers rooted in African realities.

Scheduled for September 25, 2025, ASP 2025 will take place virtually via Zoom, connecting voices from across the continent and beyond. Its focus is as ambitious as it is urgent: delivering measurable outcomes, scalable strategies, and localized frameworks to accelerate Africa’s SDG journey.

“Africa’s path to sustainability lies in aligning our rich resources with responsible governance, social equity, and environmental stewardship—because achieving the SDGs isn’t just a global goal, it’s an African imperative.”

— Dr. Orlando Olumide Odejide

Participants can expect more than speeches and soundbites. ASP 2025 will feature interactive panels, real-time dialogues, and groundbreaking case studies showcasing African innovation—from Eki-Conet’s NFC wristbands replacing paper business cards, to plastic recycling initiatives reshaping local economies.

This summit is tailored for a wide spectrum of stakeholders, including policymakers, ESG leaders, development organizations, academics, media professionals, students, and grassroots advocates. Whether you’re in government, corporate sustainability, civil society, or simply passionate about Africa’s future, ASP 2025 promises practical insight, inspiration, and tools for action.

It’s not just about what Africa has done—it’s about what must be done next, and how those actions can be truly African in design and execution. Attendees will engage with key questions: How far have we come? Have we done enough? And crucially, how do we localize solutions to drive meaningful, lasting change?

Registration is now open. This is your chance to be part of a defining moment in Africa’s sustainability journey. Join the conversation, shape the future, and ensure Africa is not just included—but leading—the global shift toward sustainable development.

Save the date: September 25, 2025. The future is calling, and ASP 2025 is Africa’s answer.
