It is not yet a victory song for the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) Ademola Adeleke, who recorded the highest vote in Osun’s governorship election, as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared the election as inconclusive.
INEC’s Returning Officer, Prof. Joseph Afuwape, said the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) polled 254,345 votes while opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) scored 254,698 votes.

Osun Governorship Election took place on Saturday amidst a peaceful atmosphere, compared to other previous state governorship elections held this year.
The battle was mainly between APC’s candidate Mr. Gbeyega Oyetola and PDP’s senator Ademola Adeleke.
Afuwape said that since the difference between the two leading parties was just 353 votes and the number of cancelled votes 3,549, therefore, no winner had emerged.
Some of the areas where results were cancelled are Orolu and Oshogbo.
