Afrobeats singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has questioned the delay in uploading results from Saturday’s Osun State governorship election to the Independent National Electoral Commission’s Result Viewing Portal, IReV.

The singer raised the concern in a series of posts on his X account on Saturday, calling on INEC to ensure transparency and provide timely updates on the electoral process.

“INEC, it is now 2:33 p.m., yet no result has been uploaded to the IReV portal. What is the delay? Nigerians deserve transparency and timely updates,” he wrote.

Davido also urged voters to remain at their polling units until their results were uploaded to the IReV portal and ensure that the figures were entered on the electronic EC8A result form.

“Make sure your polling unit results are uploaded on IReV in your presence and make sure the figures are entered on eEC8A (electronic EC8A). We will follow our votes bumper to bumper!” he said.

He further encouraged voters to photograph their polling unit result sheets and forward them to a WhatsApp number provided in his post.

“Don’t leave your polling unit until it is being uploaded on the IReV, protect your vote now,” he added.

In another post, the singer claimed that where the camera on a Bimodal Voter Accreditation System device was malfunctioning, election officials could use the front camera, which he described as “very active and fast.”

Davido has openly campaigned for his uncle, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, who is seeking re-election on the platform of the Accord Party.

His comments come as voting and the subsequent collation of results continue across the state.
