While in Emure LG, Ayenimopa Idowu announced PDP’s Olubayode Okeya who polled 15,293 votes against ADP’s candidate who polled 201 votes, as winner.


In Ilejemeje LGA, PDP’s Awolola Sunday Johnson polled 7303 to emerged winner as announced by returning officer Ojo Olutope Stephen.

Lastly, in Ado LG, the capital city with largest number of electorates, PDP’s Bamisile O Clement emerged winner by polling 43,262 votes against ADP’s candidate who polled 770 votes as Mrs. Fasiku Adesola Mercy, senior lecturer at Ikere College of Education.

Bamisile who appreciated all stakeholders for supporting the state’s electoral umpire to achieve a peaceful, free and fair election, in his address said: “Today, December 23, 2017 marked another political improvement in bringing democracy to the door step of our people. In 2015, we conducted an election that was widely adjudged free, peaceful and fair and got befitting award for our efforts.

We thank God for the successful conduct of the poll to fill Chairmanship and Councillorship seats in the state which held from 8am and 2pm and has been peaceful and violet free.

” We took our work seriously anf put in the best, hence we are have conducted free and fair election. We had visited all LGAs, traditional rulers, security agencies, political parties and others to seek for their support and for them to mobilise their people for participation in the poll. They had showed readiness for election and fullfiled their promise to vote. We have protected our people’s rights in deciding cautiously their representatives. We particularly appreciate Governor Ayodele Fayose for strengthening democracy. It is an undisputable fact that Governor Fayose always follow the constitutional dictates to conduct LG elections as at when due.

LG is closest to the people, this is why it’s election is very important. The use of caretaker committee is an aberration which we must all reject.

We appreciate all stakeholders.

In totality, PDP has won all the 16 LG chairmanship and councillorship seats in the state. Appreciate all Ekiti people for peaceful conduct. I implore all to accept the results, no Victor nor vanquished as we are all working together for good of all. Certificates of return to be given to all winners by 9:00a.m on Sunday.

Nothing special. The same trend in all states.

APGA won all LGA chairmanship election. In Anambra .
APC won all in Lagos.
APC won all in Edo State.
PDP won all in Ekiti.

There is no democracy in the states in Nigeria.
Democracy only exist in federal govt.

We need to step and raise our conscious level. A party shouldn't be winning all seats at the local government level just because they are in charge at state level. INEC has to do something about that.

We all know that local government polls, results are just written by the government in power. Something has to be done about this.
The state government are just demi gods in regards to this.

Something had to be done to make cos count right from the local level.
