Councillor Florence Nosegbe has been selected as the Labour candidate to take on the Tories in defending the seat vacated by Valerie Shawcross in the Greater London Assembly.
The former Lambeth Cabinet member for Culture, Sport and the Olympic received 1,580 number of the vote, trumping her main rival, Dora Dixon - Fyle as the candidate to represent Lambeth and Southwark, should she win the May 2016 elections.
Cllr Florence, a popular Brixton Hill Councillor of Nigerian descent who was first elected in 2006, tweeted her joy at being selected for her "home seat of Lambeth&Southwark."
She has received the support of the Mayoral candidate Sadiq Khan and many others from the party.
Using his tweeter handle @SadiqKhan, the Tooting MP said he was "looking forward to joining our new GLA candidate @FloNosegbe on the campaign trail in Lambeth & Southwark!"
