The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has officially declared Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde winner of the governorship election in the state.
Recall that the gubernatorial election was held in all 33 local government areas of the state on Saturday.
There were three major candidates in the election.
They included Makinde, who is seeking re-election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Teslim Folarin of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and Adebayo Adelabu of Accord.
The election results also show that the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Senator Teslim Folarin won in only two (2) local government areas.
With this development, there are indications that INEC will declare Makinde the winner of the election in due course.
If declared the winner, Makinde will be the second governor to serve for two terms in the state.
The first governor to serve for two terms was late Abiola Ajimobi who governed the state between 2011 and 2019.
