The results of the ongoing All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship primary in Osun State has started trickling in.
The exercise came to national attention following the outburst of Interior Minister, Rauf Aregbesola, during the week against former Lagoon Stats Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; former governor of Osun State, Chief Bisi Akande and Governor Gboyega Oyetola.
Going by unofficial results released so far at different polling units in the state, Oyetola has taken unassailable lead.
He has defeated his main challenger Moshood Adeoti, who is backed by Aregbesola, in all the results released so far.
Aregbesola was until recently known as a strong ally of APC National Leader and presidential hopeful, Tinubu.
Tinubu is supporting Oyetola for a second term in office.
