Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has raised concerns over the delay in uploading results from the Osun State governorship election to the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) Result Viewing Portal, IReV.
Davido expressed his concerns on Saturday through a series of posts on his 𝕏 account as voting continued across the state.
The singer called on INEC to upload election results to the IReV platform without unnecessary delay, stressing the need for transparency in the electoral process.
He urged voters to remain at their polling units after casting their ballots and monitor the recording and uploading of the results.
Davido also advised voters to verify that the figures recorded on the electronic EC8A result forms corresponded with the results announced at their respective polling units.
According to him, voters should remain at their polling units until they were satisfied that the results had been properly documented and uploaded to the IReV portal.
He further encouraged voters to take clear photographs of their polling unit result sheets and forward them through a WhatsApp contact he provided.
“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 added that voters should ensure their polling unit results were uploaded to IReV in their presence and that the figures were correctly entered on the electronic EC8A forms.
“We will follow our votes bumper to bumper! Don’t leave your polling unit until it is being uploaded on the IReV, protect your vote now,” he added.
