(UPDATED)#OsunDecides2026: INEC Uploads 2,700 of 3,763 Osun Election Results

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has uploaded 60% of the results from the recent Osun State gubernatorial election to its results viewing portal, known as IReV. This follows the commission's promise to share the election results on this platform. The election saw a total of 15 political parties competing for the role of Governor for a four-year term.

Incumbent Governor Ademola Adeleke, representing the Accord Party, was seeking re-election. Two candidates, Adesina Adeyemi-Doro of APGA and Simon Adewale of APM, announced their withdrawal from the contest, both of whom declared support for other candidates. Despite reports of intimidation, vote-buying, and other forms of electoral violence in some areas, voting proceeded smoothly in many parts of the state.
