After declaring the Osun governorship election inconclusive, the returning officer, Joseph Afuwape, said the date for the rerun will be communicated to party agents.

@mustivic – INEC did not dissapointed. We were all expecting something like this when they delayed with Oshogbo, and also in announcing the final results. Shame on INEC!!!

ChidiChris17 – It is very sad that each time we have an election in any part of this country, every citizen becomes INEC returning officer.
I’m not insulting anybody rather, I just want to make a common sense.
