Ekiti voters will on Saturday decide the next governor of the state in a poll that may set the tone for the 2023 general election, particularly on the performance of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
To succeed Kayode Fayemi as governor, 16 political parties are fielding candidates.
Will Abiodun Oyebanji, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), successfully fend of the challenge by Segun Oni, former governor of the state and candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), to retain the governorship for his party?
Will Olabisi Kolawole, candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), pull a surprise?
