APC loses in Governor Amosun’s polling unit
The Allied Peoples Movement has emerged winner of the governorship and House of Assembly elections cast at the polling unit of the incumbent Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun.
The governor voted at the Ita Gbangba, Ward 6, Unit 8, Abeokuta South Local Government Area of Ogun State. For the Ogun State House of Assembly in the unit, APM had 59 votes while APC scored 35 votes and ADC 13 votes. The PDP had zero votes.Mr Amosun’s support for the APM and its gubernatorial candidate, Adekunle Akinlade, has led to his suspension from the APC.
Mr Akinlade was a member of the APC, on whose platform he was elected a federal lawmaker in 2015. He won a controversial APC governorship primary organised by the governor and other stakeholders, but a panel sent by the headquarters of the party conducted a separate primary which produced Dapo Abiodun as the APC candidate.
