The Independent National Election Commission (INEC) has declared the 2018 Osun guber polls inconclusive.

The Returning Officer (RO) in the governorship race, Professor Adeola Joseph Fuwape, the Vice Chancellor of the Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) said the declaration was based on the nation’s Constitution.

According to him, the difference between the two leading parties was a mere 353 votes as compared with the 3,498 votes cancelled in some polling units owing to irregularities.

Consequently, Prof. Fuwape announced that the rerun of the election would take place on Thursday, 27th September 2018.

Senator Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) polled 254,698 votes while his opponent of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Gboyega Oyetola scored 254,345.

The declaration of election results took several hours as some of the results generated controversies and the returning officer had to supervise a recalculation of some of the results.
