  "account": "A disagreement erupted at the polling station of Osun State Deputy Governor Prince Kola Adewusi during Saturday's gubernatorial election. The incident took place when the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Benjamin Kayode Adereti, arrived at Adewusi's polling unit. It was reported that Adereti had previously voted at his own polling unit, Waasin Polling Unit 11 in Ilaare Ward 3, before heading to Adewusi's location. According to witnesses, the arrival of Adereti triggered resistance from some supporters of Adewusi, leading to a heated exchange. The situation briefly disrupted the otherwise calm environment at the polling place, as supporters argued and tensions escalated. The exact reason for Adereti's visit to the polling station remained unclear at the time of reporting.",
