INEC presents certificates of return to Aiyedatiwa, deputy

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has formally presented certificates of return to Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the Governor-elect of Ondo State, and his running mate, Adelami Olayide.

The certificates were handed over on Wednesday in Abuja by Prof. Kunle Ajayi, the Supervisory National Commissioner for Ondo State.

This follows INEC’s declaration of Aiyedatiwa as the winner of the governorship election held on Saturday, just four days prior.

Aiyedatiwa, representing the All Progressives Congress (APC), triumphed over Agboola Ajayi of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and 15 other candidates. He secured victory across all 18 local government areas of Ondo State, receiving 366,781 votes, while Ajayi garnered 117,845 votes.
