The election monitored by AIT across the various local council areas was however peaceful as few residents that came out exercised their franchise in an orderly manner under tight security.

The state Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa who cast his ballot at Polling Unit 5, Ugbo Ward 4, in Ilaje Local Government Area, and his deputy Olayide Adelami, who voted in Owo commended the peaceful electoral process.
