The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declares APC candidate Biodun Oyebanji the winner of the Ekiti State governorship election, according to multiple reports. One outlet states that INEC announces Oyebanji’s win for Ekiti West, the local government associated with the governor, during the election process. Another report says INEC makes the declaration official in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, on Sunday. Additional coverage also references Oyebanji winning at his polling unit during the election held on Saturday, June 20.

Across the sources, the common point is INEC’s formal declaration of Oyebanji as the election’s winner, with supporting details presented at different levels—polling unit performance and local government results. The reports do not provide the full statewide tally or figures in the excerpts provided, but they align on the outcome and the role of INEC in making the declaration.
