Governor Ademola Adeleke is currently leading in the Osun State governorship election with 177,572 votes, according to reports. The election process has faced some challenges, including malfunctioning BIVAS machines and allegations of thuggery.
Adeleke expressed dissatisfaction with preliminary reports of the election, citing slow BIVAS machines and disturbances by thugs in some areas, including Olorunda and Irewole councils. He alleged that the police were aiding the APC and mentioned a specific thug, Enuku, as being involved in the disturbances.
The situation in some areas, including Ikire, was tense, with Adeleke's supporters reportedly being chased. Adeleke advised his supporters to defend their votes and not be afraid.
