The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Friday certified Ademola Adeleke of the People Democratic Party (PDP) as the candidate of the main opposition party for the July 16 2022 governorship election in Osun State.
The former senator appeared on the final list of cleared nominees for the election published on Friday by the electoral office.
The move consequently resolved questions hanging over whether Adeleke was the candidate or Dotun Babayemi, who had launched a factional body of the party in Osun ahead of the primaries in February.
Adegboyega Oyetola, the incumbent governor, was listed as the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
