Muyiwa Oki has been elected as the next RIBA president after one of the most hotly contested elections for the post in recent years.

Oki won at the second stage with 49.28% of the votes in a three-horse race against Jo Bacon and Sumita Singha. This is the first elected position that Oki will hold at the RIBA. He will take over from Simon Allford next September and assume the role of president-elect next month.
