Prof Ayobami Salami, INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner, Ekiti State said, “The election at Ido/Osi State Constituency 1 is inconclusive. This is due to the fact that the margin of lead principle indicated a need for supplementary elections to be held in three polling units before a clear winner could emerge.”
