The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate in the Ekiti governorship election, Kayode Fayemi has voted in Unit 9 ward 11 in Ogilolo, Isan- Ekiti polling unit.
Fayemi arrived at the polling unit at 10:16 a.m. with his wife, Erelu Bisi to the cheers of the crowd. He voted six minutes later after his arrival without delay.
However, his wife could not immediately cast her vote as the card reader failed to recognise her PVC.
She successfully voted later after several trials.

Fayemi in reaction said the electoral process has been peaceful, especially in his unit despite the slight delay in the card reader recognising his wife’s PVC.
“It was relatively smooth, except for a little hitch that they had with my wife’s voters card. But as far as Ogilolo unit in Isan Ekiti is concerned, it was a smooth process,” he said.
Fayemi, however, noted that he had heard of delays and card readers malfunction in some parts of the state, but said generally, the reports showed that the election had been peaceful so far.
