(POLITICS) Minority Leader, Biodun Olujimi Loses Senate Seat

 

   The Senate Minority Leader, Biodun Olujimi has lost her bid to return to the Senate, as she has been defeated by former fellow party man, Dayo Adeyeye of the All Progressives Congress. Mr Adeyeye emerged victorious at the end of the count of votes for Ekiti South senatorial district.

   Mr Adeyeye defected to the APC shortly before the 2018 governorship election, after the controversial PDP governorship primaries. The Returning Officer for Ekiti South senatorial district, Laide Lawal, said Mr Adeyeye polled 77, 621 to defeat his closest rival, Mrs Olujimi who scored 53, 741.
