The Speaker of Ogun State House of Assembly, Olakunle Oluomo, has been re-elected to represent Ifo State Constituency 1.

This cheering news emerged from a supplementary election held in the area on Saturday.

According to the Independent National Electoral Commission in the state, the Speaker won after polling 7,546 votes to defeat the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Ogundele Okikiola who scored 6,569 votes.

With this development, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has 17 seats of the 26-member Ogun State House of Assembly while the PDP has only nine.

Recall that the Ifo State Constituency 1, Unit 4 was cancelled due to over-voting which trailed the 18th of March 2023 governorship and State House of Assembly elections.
