The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has presented Certificates of Return to Ondo State Governor-elect Lucky Aiyedatiwa and his deputy, Adelami Olayide.

The certificates were formally presented in Abuja on Wednesday by Prof. Kunle Ajayi, the Supervisory National Commissioner for Ondo State.

This comes four days after INEC declared Aiyedatiwa the winner of the governorship election held on Saturday.

Aiyedatiwa, representing the All Progressives Congress (APC), secured a landslide victory in the governorship election, defeating Agboola Ajayi of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and 15 other candidates.

He won overwhelmingly across all 18 local government areas, garnering 366,781 votes against Ajayi’s 117,845 votes.
