The chairman of Gboyin Local Government, Honorable Damilare Ajayi and other elected chairmen in the recently conducted council poll in Ekiti State have been presented their certificate of return.
Also receiving their certificates of Return are the Vice chairmen and councilors-elect in the state.
While making the presentation in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday, the Chairman of Ekiti State Independent Electoral Commission (EKSIEC), Honorable Justice Cornelius Akintayo said the elected officers have satisfied the provisional requirements of the commission which secured them the victory at the poll.
