The editor of Edeson Online News & Lagos based Blogger Endy Edeson is in Ondo State ahead of the governorship election scheduled to hold tomorrow October 10, 2020. Edeson wants the Ondo State election to be transparent and peaceful just like the recently concluded Edo State governorship election. However, Edeson will also use the opportunity to meet some start-ups and a client to discuss business as he is also a professional Website Designer, Freelancer, and Internet Marketer.Ondo State, nicknamed the “Sunshine State”, was created from the defunct Western Region on February 3, 1976. It originally included what is now Ekiti State, which was carved out in 1996. Ondo State occupies a land area of about 15,500km² (6,000sq. ml) with a population of 3,441,924 people according to the 2006 census. The state has 18 Local Government Areas with each of the three senatorial districts having six apiece, with Akure as the capital city. It has eight House of Representatives seats and 26 state House of Assembly positions and 203 Wards and 3,009 Polling Units. It also has 1,822,346 Registered Voters. However, on Saturday, only 1,478,460 out of these voters who have collected their Permanent Voter Cards are expected to vote in the governorship 17 political parties fielded candidates. Unfortunately, out of the whole lot, only one of them is a female.
Ondo State is one of the seven states that have off-cycle, off-season governorship elections in Nigeria. This happened as a result of the judicial intervention on the 2007 governorship election petition between Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, then of the Labour Party and Dr. Olusegun Agagu, then of the Peoples Democratic Party. Mimiko triumphed over Agagu at the Court of Appeal in 2008 hence the change in the cycle in terms of governorship election in Ondo State.
.
Though there are 17 candidates in the Ondo election, it is largely a three-horse race. The real contenders are Governor Akeredolu, the APC candidate, the PDP’s Eyitayo Jegede and Zenith Labour’s candidate who incidentally is the incumbent Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi. Interestingly, the three of them are lawyers with Akeredolu and Jegede being Senior Advocates of Nigeria. Akeredolu and Jegede have also served as former Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General of Ondo State .
