Residents of Ondo have voted to elect their governor for the next four years.

After months of wooing the voters across the state, political parties and their candidates will be hoping that their words did enough to convince the electorate to cast their ballots for them.

Ahead of the exercise, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) cleared 18 political parties for the poll.

They will vote in 3,933 polling units of the 1`8 local government areas of the South-West state.

There are 2,053,061 registered voters in the state, according to INEC which said it would deploy the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) and the INEC Result Viewing Portal (IReV) to avoid malpractice.

On Friday, the electoral umpire began the distribution of sensitive materials to LGAs and said it was ready for the election.

The police and other security agencies have also deployed their personnel to beef up safety for the exercise.

Incumbent Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa will be on the ballot, seeking election after he took over from late Governor Rotimi Akeredolu who died late last year.

He faces stiff competition from Ajayi Agboola of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) – who also served as Akeredolu’s deputy earlier – and other candidates.Voting in the election began around 8:00 am.
