Ondo Elections 2024: APC's Aiyedatiwa Leads In 15 LGAs Announced So Far

As the final count draws near, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) officials have announced an unexpected adjournment of the ongoing gubernatorial results collation in Ondo State. With only three local governments left to declare, INEC has postponed the exercise until noon on Sunday, 17th November, citing logistical delays.


The collation, which resumed briefly after a long break, saw fresh results from Okitipupa and Akure North local government areas. Both results tilted heavily in favor of the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Lucky Aiyedatiwa. His victories in these two areas have further widened his lead over his closest rival, Agboola Ajayi of the People's Democratic Party (PDP).


According to earlier reports, Aiyedatiwa had already won in all 13 local government areas announced so far, amassing a commanding lead of over 178,000 votes. With the recent additions from Okitipupa and Akure North, Aiyedatiwa's vote tally has now surged to 301,113, while Ajayi trails with 97,051 votes. The current margin stands at an overwhelming 204,062 votes in favor of Aiyedatiwa.


Despite the apparent clear lead, the final results remain pending as three local government areas have yet to be declared. The delay, according to INEC's Presiding Officer, Prof. Olayemi Akinwunmi—also the Vice Chancellor of the Federal University of Lokoja—is due to the challenging logistics of transporting results from distant areas.


With the collation now postponed until noon on Sunday, all eyes are on INEC as voters and political watchers eagerly await the final declaration. The anticipation is palpable, as Aiyedatiwa’s APC holds a commanding position, but Ajayi’s PDP is hoping for a dramatic shift in the remaining results. The wait continues as the final chapters of this hard-fought election unfold.
