The Ekiti State governorship election witnessed a dramatic show of public participation on Saturday as thousands of residents of Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Government Area defied police-imposed restrictions on vehicular movement to cast their ballots.
In Afao-Ekiti, the hometown of former governor Ayodele Fayose, the polls unfolded in a festive atmosphere, with large crowds of voters and supporters filling the streets despite the security directive.
The town buzzed with excitement as residents turned out in significant numbers, transforming the election into what many described as a carnival-like event marked by enthusiasm and high civic engagement.
