The incumbent governor of Ondo State and governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Lucky Aiyedatiwa, cast his vote early on Saturday as the gubernatorial election in the state got underway.
Aiyedatiwa voted at his Polling Unit 05, Ward 4, Obenla, in Ilaje Local Government Area at exactly 8:52 a.m.
Shortly after voting, the governor praised the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for its smooth and efficient process coordination, particularly in his ward.
The governor urged voters to exercise their franchise peacefully, emphasizing the importance of their participation in shaping the future of the state.
Reports from other parts of Ondo State indicate that voting materials and INEC ad-hoc staff arrived early in several polling units, setting the stage for a smooth election process. Security agencies are also on the ground to ensure law and order.
The Ondo governorship election has drawn significant attention, with Aiyedatiwa and other candidates from various political parties vying for the state’s top office.
He said on the electoral process, “From what I have seen here today, the election is peaceful and I have cast my vote. I commended INEC and security agencies for their composure.
“So, I’m urging the people of the state to come out and exercise their franchise in today’s election without any fear or favour.”
Aiyedatiwa, however, expressed optimism that he would win the governorship election, saying, “it will be big celebration” for his party.
