“I’m glad to announce to you that the local government election as conducted by the Osun State Independent Electoral Commission has been successfully concluded,” Abioye said.

“It was conducted in compliance with constitutional provisions and extant laws, regulations and guidelines. The election was conducted to fill the existing vacancies in the 332 wards in Osun state and 30 local government areas.

“The election was contested by 18 political parties and results have been submitted to the commission. The available results as obtained from the field, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 332 wards emerged as winners.

“For the 30 local government areas of Osun state, the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) cleared all the seats.”

Earlier today, Abioye alleged that police officers sealed off the commission’s office, preventing journalists from collecting accreditation tags and jackets needed to cover the election.

He said OSSIEC officials were detained alongside voting materials on their way to polling units.

The police had called for the suspension of the LG election, citing a high likelihood of violence and security threats.
