Nigerian music star Davido has publicly questioned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) regarding the significant delay in uploading the results of the Osun State governorship election to its Result Viewing (IReV) portal.

In a post on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter, Davido voiced his concern, noting that as of 2:33 p.m. on Saturday, August 15, 2026, election results had still not been uploaded. He directly addressed INEC's official X account, urging the commission to ensure greater transparency and provide timely updates to the public.

"INEC, it is now 2:33 p.m., yet no result has been uploaded to the IReV portal. What is the delay? Nigerians deserve transparency and timely updates," Davido wrote, highlighting the public's expectation for prompt information during the electoral process.

The singer's query comes as citizens across Osun State are participating in the crucial governorship election. The IReV portal was established to enhance the transparency of elections by allowing the public to view results from polling units electronically. The current delay in uploading these results has raised questions about the efficiency and openness of the process.
