  "summary": "The Edo State Government has criticized Davido for calling for Donald Trump's intervention in the Osun election. According to the Punch, the government urged Davido to focus on music instead of politics.\n\nIn a separate development, a video circulating on social media showed a man wearing an AMBO T-shirt allegedly sharing cash with a group of women. The man was seen handing N1,000 notes to the women.\n\nThe All Progressives Congress held a mega rally in Osogbo, the state capital, in support of its governorship candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, also known as AMBO. At the rally, Senator Adams Oshiomhole emphasized the party's commitment to peace and urged voters to use their ballots rather than resort to violence. Senate President Godswill Akpabio also charged Oyebamiji to focus on transforming Osun State if elected governor.",
