the Lagos State governorship seat between the top two contenders; candidate of the PDP, Jimi Agbaje and candidate of the APC Akinwunmi Ambode, shows marginal five percent point gap between the two.
When asked who respondents will be voting for in the coming February 2015 governorship elections in Lagos State, Ambode led the list of candidates with 26 percent, while Jimi Agbaje had 21 percent. However, 50 percent of those polled are undecided as to their choice of candidate; and it is believed this significant proportion of voters would be critical in deciding who eventually wins the coveted seat.
The survey results also show that both candidates have strong support from eligible voters across all age groups. However, a significant proportion of first time voters aged between 18-21 years (64 percent) are undecided as to their choice of candidate.
The survey also shows that about 9 in 10 eligible voters are registered to vote in the February elections, with almost 9 in 10 (88 percent) being absolutely certain that they will vote. Despite being mostly undecided, first time voters of between 18 to 21 years age group leads the majority of those who are absolutely certain they will vote.
