This is coming against the declaration of the poll inconclusive by the electoral umpire on Sunday after the gubernatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ademola Adeleke polled polled 254, 698 votes to defeat his closest rival, Mr Gboyega Isiaka Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who garnered 254, 345 votes.
