Both Abiodun and Adebutu are indigenes of Iperu, Ikenne Local Government Area of Ogun State, but they have been attacking each other since the campaign began.

While his supporters felt apprehensive over the result, the governor took to his Twitter handle to brag that his reelection is a done deal.

“With the look of things, it is safe to tell our well-wishers “e lo fokanbale” DA 4+4 is sacrosanct!” he tweeted.
