According to report, Olagunju gave the commendation in Ibadan on Saturday while receiving heads of security agencies, who paid him separate visits in his office at Agodi, Ibadan.
While appreciating their efforts, Olagunju called for more cooperation and synergy between the commission and the agencies.
Earlier, the state Commissioner of Police (CP), Mrs. Ngozi Onadeko, said her visit was to assure the OYSIEC chairman of the commitment of the police towards the provision of adequate security.
The CP said that she and other senior security officers would move around parts of the state to monitor the election. The CP was accompanied by officials of the Nigeria Immigration Service.
