Biodun Oyebanji is the candidate of the ruling APC, Olabisi Kolawole is the candidate of the PDP, and Segun Oni, who was rumored to have stepped down for the PDP, is the candidate of the SDP.

Although political analysts have characterized the Ekiti election of 2022 as a three-horse race, other political parties such as the Young Progressives Party (YPP) and its candidate, Ranti Ajayi; the African Democratic Congress (ADC), represented by Oluwole Oluyede; and the Action Democratic Party (ADP), represented by Kemi Elebute Halle, cannot be dismissed.
