87.5% new members to make up 9th Oyo Assembly, APC in minority

Eight-seven point five per cent of the ninth Oyo House of Assembly will be made up of newcomers, as only four out the 32-member assembly had once had legislative experience at the state level.

The four returning members are Honourable Wumi Oladeji of the Action Democratic Party (ADP) and Honourable Adebo Ogundoyin of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who are current members of the Assembly, while Oyeleke Adebola and Ashimiyu Alarape both of the All Progressives Congress (APC) had once been members of the Assembly.
