The Ekiti State governor-elect and candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the June 18 governorship election, Mr. Biodun Oyebanji, and his

Deputy, Mrs Monisade Afuye, yesterday, got their certificates of return indicating their victory in the just concluded poll.

Oyebanji, who spoke while receiving the certificate alongside Mrs Afuye at the Independent National Electoral Commission’s office in Ado Ekiti, promised not to betray Ekiti people in his service to them. “Let me thank the INEC for providing a level playing ground for the contenders in this election. I can’t agree with the INEC less that the BVAS was a game changer in our election.

Addressing the recipients, the INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner, Ekiti State, Dr Adeniran Tella, said the presentation of certificates was in line with Section 72 of the Electoral Act, which stipulated that the commission should present certificates to governor and deputy within 14 days of being elected.

“The customisation of all election materials reduced the incidences of hijack. All stakeholders, particularly the political parties and security agencies should support INEC in the introduction of technology to enhance our electoral process and reduce the number of electoral offenders”, Tella stated.
