DAILY POST had reported that Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, led the race on Saturday with 254,698 votes, 353 votes more than Oyetola.
The margin was, however, less than the 3,498 votes in the polling units where voting was cancelled.
Consequently, the Returning Officer for the election, Professor Joseph Afuape, declared the poll inconclusive.
Thursday was fixed for the rerun of the election by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, in the affected areas.
And Senator Sani tweeted that “For the rerun, we [APC] must brace ourselves, tighten our shoe lace, run like Usain Bolt and not like Ben Johnson.”
