Governor Abiola Ajimobi has become the first governor to govern Oyo State twice. He defeated two other former governors in the state to clinch victory in a keenly-contested election. This came as Accord refused to sign the result sheets saying he had the directive of his party not to sign. The secretary of the party, Nureni Adisa, said the mandate of his party had been stolen. The former governors who contested with the incumbent governor are Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala of Labour Party and Senator Rashidi Ladoja of Accord. As at the time of filing this report, Ajimobi had won 20 out of the 33 local governments in the state leaving Ladoja with only seven and Akala with six. Before the announcement of the results, there was tension in the metropolis as some members of Accord were reportedly celebrating after knowing that their preferred candidate was leading with a wide margin in just one local government.
