Senator Sarafadeen Alli, Oyo South, has won the Oyo State All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship primary election.
The lawmaker polled 578,143 votes to beat former Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu who polled 19,193 votes and one other.
Adelabu resigned his ministerial position to run for the Oyo State governorship seat.
Adelabu was reported to have alleged that the primary election was rigged.
Adelabu made the allegation on Thursday while interacting with newsmen after casting his vote at his ward.
Addressing journalists, the ex-minister said, “I must sound this note of warning that it is not this way in a lot of other wards.
“Reports that I am getting indicate that there are many gross misconducts in the other wards ranging from various forms of infractions.
In some wards they held the election hours before the appointed time and wrote the figures they liked.
