EKITI ELECTION: APC CANDIDATE OYEBANJI GALLOPS TO DECISIVE VICTORY

With results from more than half of the 2,445 polling units already collated, Biodun Oyebanji, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress is galloping to decisive victory.

He seems to have defied pre-poll predictions of a close race among the three leading candidates, who included PDP's Bisi Kolawole and SDP's Engineer Olusegun Oni, a former governor.

All the three candidates won their polling units handily.

But outside their comfort zones, Oyebanji is cantering ahead, leaving others behind on his trail

Here are some of the results according to the wards:

Efon LGA Ward 9

APC: 303

PDP: 668

SDP: 24

Total registered voters: 3617
