Speaker of the House, Barrister Razaq Atunwa specifically commended the INEC Chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega, the state INEC and all the security agencies for for conducting free, fair and credible election.

Atunwa noted that the election in Kwara was devoid of malpractice and violence, saying INEC had helped in deepening the country's democracy.
