#OsunDecides2026: Davido urges INEC officials to use front camera on BVAS

Davido has advised INEC officials to use the front camera on the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) during the Osun governorship election. He made this suggestion via a tweet on his X handle on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Osun State Governor and Accord Party governorship candidate, Ademola Adeleke, expressed dissatisfaction with reports from the ongoing election, citing malfunctioning BVAS machines and voter intimidation in parts of the state. According to Punch, Adeleke alleged that thugs were disrupting the exercise in Olorunda and Irewole Local Government Areas.

Adeleke claimed that voters were being delayed by the slow pace of accreditation due to the malfunctioning machines. Premium Times reported that Davido made the suggestion as voting was underway in the election.
