Gov Oyebanji Set To Be Declared Winner of Ekiti Election

Governor Biodun Oyebanji, the candidate for the All Progressives Congress (APC), is set to be declared the winner of the Ekiti State governorship election. Preliminary results announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) at the State Collation Centre in Ado-Ekiti show Oyebanji leading comprehensively across all 16 local government areas.

His closest rivals in the race are Dr. Wole Oluyede of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Ambassador Dare Bejide representing the African Democratic Congress (ADC). The current vote tallies indicate a significant margin of victory for the incumbent governor.

The election saw voters turn out to cast their ballots, with INEC officials diligently working to ensure a transparent and accurate counting process. The announcement of the final results is anticipated shortly, confirming Oyebanji's re-election.

This outcome suggests a strong endorsement of Oyebanji's leadership and the APC's platform within Ekiti State. The detailed breakdown of results from each local government area underscores the widespread support received by the APC candidate.
