Kayode Fayemi, governor-elect of
Ekiti state, on Thursday led some members of the All Progressives Congress
(APC) to the residence of Iyiola Omisore, Social Democratic Party (SDP)
candidate in Osun state governorship election.
His visit comes 24 hours after
that of Senate President Bukola Saraki.
The PDP and APC are wooing
Omisore ahead of the governorship rerun scheduled for Thursday.
The Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Saturday’s election inconclusive.
Ademola Adeleke of the PDP had
polled 254,699, while his closest challenger, Isiaka Oyetola of the APC had
254,345 votes.
With 128,049 votes, Omisore
placed a distant third.
Although all the 48 political
parties will partake in the exercise, the contest is between Adeleke and
Oyetola, and Ife is a stronghold of Omisore.
