Alliance for new nigeria party ekiti election
You're referring to the Ekiti State gubernatorial election in Nigeria, which took place on June 18, 2022. The Alliance for New Nigeria (ANN) party fielded a candidate, Olusegun Oni, who contested against other parties.
Here's a brief summary of the election results:
- Incumbent Governor Biodun Oyebanji of the All Progressives Congress (APC) won the election with 187,057 votes.
- Olusegun Oni of the ANN party came second with 72,145 votes.
- Other parties that participated in the election included the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party (LP), and African Action Congress (AAC), among others.
The election was generally peaceful, with reports of minor incidents of violence and ballot box snatching. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Oyebanji the winner of the election.
It's worth noting that the ANN party is a relatively new political party in Nigeria, and this was their first major electoral test. While they didn't win the election, they still managed to secure a significant number of votes, which could be seen as a promising start for the party.
