The Accord Party won the Ife Central Local Government Area in the Osun governorship election, securing 21,171 votes against 15,913 for the All Progressives Congress. The result, announced Saturday night at the Ife Central LGA collation centre, provides a significant advantage for incumbent Governor Ademola Adeleke over the All Progressives Congress candidate, Bola Oyebamiji.
