Celebrations have already begun at the Osun state government house as the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate in the just concluded gubernatorial election, Gboyega Oyetola, appears to have won the rerun election held today in some parts of the state.

Gboyega Oyetola, is leading in three out of the four local government areas where the rerun election held after the announcement of results by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Oyetola swept the two polling units in Ile-Ife. In Ife south, Oyetola got 283 votes, while Ademola Adeleke, the PDP candidate, got 15 votes. In Ife north, APC got 126 votes, while Adeleke got just two votes.

In both polling units, polling agents of the PDP candidate were conspicuously absent.
