Gubernatorial elections are currently scheduled to be held in Lagos State, Nigeria, on February 6, 2027. If the election is officially rescheduled, this market will resolve based on the election held to choose the Governor for the term beginning in 2027. This market will resolve according to the listed candidate who wins the 2027 Lagos State gubernatorial election. Any interim, acting, or caretaker Governor will not qualify. If the results are not known definitively by October 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "Other". To be elected Governor, a candidate must satisfy the requirements under Nigerian law, including receiving the highest number of votes cast and the constitutionally required geographic distribution of votes. If no candidate wins the election outright, this market will remain open to account for any further election or runoff, provided this occurs before the resolution deadline. If no candidate has been officially elected by the resolution deadline, this market will resolve to "Other". This market will resolve based on the results of this election, as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve solely based on official results published by Nigeria's Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and Nigerian government sources.Lagos State’s February 2027 governorship contest remains tightly balanced among leading contenders because the APC’s organizational strength and incumbency advantage, anchored by Deputy Governor Obafemi Hamzat’s selection of a running mate from Badagry, face a fragmented opposition field. Laja Adeoye of the APM became the first candidate formally uploaded to the INEC portal and is advancing an “Atunto Eko Agenda,” while Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour secured the ADC nomination and is campaigning independently of the 2023 Obidient movement. Additional aspirants from the PDP and smaller parties continue grassroots mobilization, with no dominant coalition yet formed. Traders price the top names near parity because primary outcomes, potential alliances, and turnout dynamics among key voting blocs could still shift momentum before the February ballot.
