PDP Sweeps All 30 LGAs In Osun Council Poll
The Osun State Independent Electoral Commission, OSSIEC, announced that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) won all the local government and councillorship positions in the just-concluded local government election in the state.
OSSIEC Chairman Hashim Abioye made this announcement via a Facebook Live broadcast on Saturday evening.
Abioye stated that PDP candidates won all the councillorship seats in all 332 wards in the state and also secured victory in the chairmanship elections across all 30 local government council areas.
However, the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Osun State has commended the people for boycotting what it described as an illegal local government council election.
