Recall that Senator Omisore was also the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate in the 2014 Gubernatorial Election in the state where he was defeated by the candidate of Rauf Aregbesola of the APC.

And in 2018 he came a distant third behind Senator Ademola Adeleke of the PDP and the eventual winner, Adegboyega Oyetola of the APC.
