Governor Ademola Adeleke has won 19 of the 30 local government areas in Saturday’s Osun State governorship election, while the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, won 11 LGAs.
Results collated by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) showed Adeleke winning in Ede North, Ede South, Osogbo, Ife Central, Ife East, Ila, Boluwaduro, Irepodun, Ayedire, Ejigbo, Ayedaade, Ifelodun, Ife North, Ilesa West, Egbedore, Orolu, Oriade, Ifedayo, Odo-Otin and Iwo.
Oyebamiji, meanwhile, won in Olorunda, Irewole, Ilesa East, Ife South, Ola-Oluwa, Isokan, Boripe, Obokun, Atakumosa West and Atakumosa East.
However, there is an apparent discrepancy in the supplied report, as Irepodun was listed among the LGAs won by both candidates.
The result should therefore be verified against INEC’s official collation records.
The Chief Returning Officer, Professor Joshua Ogunwole, Vice-Chancellor of the Federal University Oye-Ekiti, had yet to formally declare the winner as of the time of the report.
The final declaration is expected after INEC completes the collation and verification of results.
