Accord Party led the unit with 65 votes, while the All Progressives Congress (APC) followed with 43 votes. The remaining four parties each recorded minimal tallies.
Counting ongoing across Osogbo
Correspondents on the ground in Osogbo reported that while unit 39 had concluded its exercise, several other polling units in the area were still in the process of sorting and counting ballots at the time of reporting.
The results from individual polling units will feed into the overall ward and local government tallies, which INEC will subsequently collate before announcing governorship figures for the state.
