The current lawmaker representing Osun East in the Senate, Francis Fadahunsi, has won the ticket of the All Progressives Congress in the 2027 general elections.
This came as the Senator representing Osun Central, Olubiyi Fadeyi, lost the re-election ticket to Adekunle Adegoke (SAN).
Fadahunsi, presently serving as the Senate Committee on Industry, was first elected into the Senate in 2019 on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party.
In 2023, he was re-elected on the platform of the same party.
He, however, in 2025, alongside four other PDP lawmakers, defected to the All Progressives Congress.
In a video clip obtained on Tuesday, the chairman of Osun APC primary election committee, Mr Bayo Ayo, who read the result, said, “Fadahunsi scored 23,593 votes to defeat his opponents, Mr Famurewa Isreal and Mr Thomas Ogungbangbe, who got 472 and 806 votes respectively. ”
In other results, the Senator representing Osun Central, Olubiyi Fadeyi, lost the re-election ticket to Adekunle Adegoke (SAN).
“Adegoke polled 26,655 votes to emerge victorious, while Fadeyi received 13,138 votes,” Ayo said.
Other aspirants for the ticket, Yomi Ogunwale scored 2,925, Akintunde Adegboye, 342 votes while Olu Fakeye got 067 votes.
