Fact Check: The All Progressive Congress party in Nigeria won the Gubernatorial race in Lagos with the re-election of Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the party also won the Presidential election with Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Al Jazeera reported. Presidential candidate Peter Obi has filed a petition to challenge the results of the February election after election observers reported several issues with the election process, according to Al Jazeera. The Facebook video allegedly shows a violent clash taking place on the street in Lagos, Nigeria just days after the governor’s race. The video is taken from above the streets and shows a crowd running and yelling below. “Alaba international market today been 19/03/2023 they are out to defend themselves against Tinubu boys,” the caption reads. The caption is inaccurate. The video dates back to 2022. The clash is between traders and road transport workers, not over the recent election results.
