Kindly share:<\/p>\n
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has won all 30 chairmanship and 332 councillorship seats in the local government election held on Saturday in Osun.<\/p>\n
Mr Hashim Abioye, Chairman of the State Independent Electoral Commission (OSSIEC), announced the results on state-owned television, Osun Broadcasting Corporation (OSBC), in Osogbo.<\/p>\n
Abioye stated that 18 political parties participated in the election.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to announce that the local council election, conducted by the Osun State Independent Electoral Commission (OSSIEC), has been successfully concluded.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was conducted in compliance with constitutional provisions, extant laws, regulations, and guidelines.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe election was held to fill vacancies in 332 wards and 30 local government areas of Osun State,\u201d Abioye added.<\/p>\n
He said 18 political parties contested, and the results have been submitted to the commission.<\/p>\n
According to him, from the available results, PDP candidates in all 332 wards emerged as winners.<\/p>\n
\u201cTheir names are listed in the schedule to this text. As Chief Returning Officer, I hereby declare each one duly elected chairmen and councillors of their respective areas.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe results are available for anyone interested in certified true copies.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor the 30 local government areas of Osun State, PDP candidates won all the seats,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Abioye apologised to the media for the commission\u2019s failure to provide accreditation tags for election coverage.<\/p>\n
He alleged that security agencies sealed the commission\u2019s office, where the materials were kept.<\/p>\n
The main opposition, the All Progressives Congress (APC), had earlier announced its withdrawal from the election.<\/p>\n
The withdrawal was contained in a letter dated February 17, signed by APC State Secretary, Alao Kamoru, and addressed to the Secretary of OSSIEC.<\/p>\n
A copy of the letter stated that APC would not participate, citing the February 10 Court of Appeal ruling in Akure reinstating its sacked officials. (NAN)<\/p>\n
