OSUN ELECTION: Ademola Adeleke Got 218 Votes While The APC Got 23
In the just completed Osun State gubernatorial election on Saturday, Senator Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic PAdelekearty (PDP) won his polling place.
Adeleke cast her ballot in the state’s Ward 02, Unit 09, Abogunde/Sagba local government district.
Adegboyega Oyetola, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for governor, and the former senator, who is his main opponent, both received 218 votes on Saturday. Oyetola received 23 votes, and Dr. Akin Ogunbiyi of the Accord party received one vote.
Despite the fact that there were 15 candidates running for the position of governor, Oyetola of the APC and Adeleke of the PDP reportedly engaged in a fierce campaign.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) reported that there were 332 Registration Areas (RAs) and 5,305 Bimodal Voters Accreditation System (BVAS) available for the election.
The Resident Electoral Commissioner, Prof. Abdulganiyu Raji, revealed this last week as part of election preparations.
The commission further stated that Osun has 332 registration locations, 1,955,657 registered voters, but only 335,298 had Permanent Voter Cards gathered (PVCs).
In the state’s 30 local government regions, there are 246 polling places where the election will be held.
