New entrant into the Peoples Democratic Party and pharmacist, Jimi Agbaje, on Monday floored a former Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro.
Agbaje polled 432 votes to defeat Obanikoro who scored 343 votes.
There had been controversy even before the commencement of the poll.
Supporters of the two contestants fought in the morning, with many sustaining injuries.
At a point during the exercise, Obanikoro demanded for the stoppage of counting.
Agbaje, however, opted to go the whole hog.
