Actor Olumide Oworu declared his intention to run for Surulere Constituency 1 in the House of Assembly on the Labour Party (LP) platform.
Bode Adedayo, however, was listed as the LP candidate for the March 18, 2023, election.

Olumide has now clarified the situation through a statement posted on his social media page. He explained that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) failed to “comply with the subsisting judgment of the Federal High Court delivered on the 2nd of February 2023 in Suit No: FHC/ABJ/CS/2115/2022 wherein INEC was ordered to open her website to allow the labour party to submit the list of her candidates or accept the same manually immediately.”

Olumide stressed that his desire for change in Lagos State was what drove him to run, not for personal benefit.
He urged people to keep striving for a more just and better society and to hold their leaders responsible.
