The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has emerged victorious in the Osun State local government elections, winning all 30 chairmanship seats and all councillorship positions across the state.
This was confirmed by the Chairman of the Osun State Independent Electoral Commission (OSIEC), Hashim Abioye, during a press conference on Saturday in Osogbo, the state capital.
The local government election, which took place amid concerns from the opposition, saw PDP dominate across all polling units, reaffirming its stronghold in the state. The ruling party’s clean sweep, however, was not unexpected, given the political landscape and recent developments in Osun.
