Osun decides: Residents chant as APC govs reportedly leave collation centre [VIDEO]

On Saturday night, residents of Osun State expressed their disapproval of the All Progressives Congress (APC) governors' departure from the collation center following the governorship election. A video circulating on social media captured the residents' reaction, as they were seen celebrating the moment a convoy purportedly belonging to the APC governors exited the state. The residents were heard making disparaging remarks during this celebration.

Earlier in the election campaign, Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State drew attention by criticizing Ademola Adeleke, the incumbent governor and candidate of the Accord Party. Okpebholo had lambasted Adeleke for always dancing before engaging in official duties. This remark was met with strong criticism from various individuals, including Nigerian musician Davido, who retaliated by sharing his West Africa Examination Council (WAEC) results in response.
