BREAKING: First Ekiti Election Result Emerges For #EkitiDecides2022

The First Ekiti election result has emerged for #EkitiDecides2022.

Newsone reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) commenced the Ondo governorship election at exactly 8 am on Saturday, June 18, 2022, amidst tight security.

This online news platform understands that the Ekiti governorship election is taking place in sixteen (16) Local Government Areas (LGAs), one hundred and seventy-seven (177) Wards and two thousand, four hundred and forty-five (2,445) Polling units in the state.

Here are the 16 Local Government Areas in Ekiti State:

  • Ado-Ekiti
  • Ikere
  • Oye
  • Aiyekire (Gbonyin)
  • Efon
  • Ekiti East
  • Ekiti South-West
  • Emure
  • Ekiti West
  • Ido-Osi
  • Ijero
  • Ikole
  • Ilejemeje
  • Irepodun/Ifelodun
  • Ise/Orun
  • Moba

Newsone reports that the Ekiti election 2022 has the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Nigeria’s main opposition party, and the Social Democratic Party (SDP) as the main contenders in terms of political parties contesting the election.

The ruling APC has Biodun Oyebanji as its candidate, Olabisi Kolawole is the candidate of the PDP, while Segun Oni who was earlier touted to have stepped down for PDP, is bearing the flag of the SDP.

Although the Ekiti election 2022 has been seen by political analysts as a three-horse race, other political parties such as the Young Progressives Party (YPP) with its candidate, Ranti Ajayi; African Democratic Congress (ADC), represented by Oluwole Oluyede; and the Action Democratic Party ADP, with Kemi Elebute Halle, cannot be regarded as pushovers.

Newsone Nigeria reports that all the governorship candidates are in the race to succeed the executive governor of the state, Kayode Fayemi,  and had battled it out in a debate held in Ado-Ekiti last Saturday where they made their plans and policies known to the people of the state.

The Ekiti State Governorship election is the first one to be conducted by INEC using the new Electoral Act, while 3,346 Bimodal Voters Accreditation system (BVAS) machines are being used.

Below is the First Ekiti Election Result…
