Joseph Omoniyi
Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has been declared winner of one of the seven polling units in Orolu LG, one of the councils where the rerun election held on Thursday.
Adeleke polled 64 votes in Orolu Ward 9, Unit 3 polling unit, while the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gboyega Oyetola got 41 votes.
However, the APC candidate beat him with a wide gap in Orolu ward 8, unit 4. He polled 198 votes, while Adeleke got a small amount of 15 votes.
Also in Ife South, where his party’s agent did not report for duty, Adeleke lost to his rival Oyetola. He got 15 votes, while the APC candidate ran away with 283 votes.
The PDP candidate came into the rerun with an advantage of 353 votes. But he seems to be fading out from his first position in the governorship race.
