Popular singer, David Adeleke, also known as Davido, has reacted to the announcement by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, declaring the just-concluded governorship election in Osun State inconclusive. Davido’s uncle, Ademola Adeleke is the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate in the election.
INEC said Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, polled about 254,698 ahead of Gboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress, APC, who garnered 254,345 votes.
This decision followed cancellation of votes in Orolu Local Government, Ife South LG, Ife North LG and Osogbo LG resulting.However, reacting, Davido who had earlier raised the alarm that INEC planned to declare the election as inconclusive because there were cancellations and violence in some polling units, assured that there would be victory at last. He wrote, ”Desperate
for Democracy, Victory is certain which ever way ..God’s
Senator Iyiola Omisore, the candidate of the Social Democratic Party in the Osun governorship election has been the target of attack by PDP supporters on Twitter.
And he has also been praised by supporters of the All Progressives Congress for helping their candidate, by default.The PDP sympathisers are blaming him for playing a spoiler and giving the APC candidate, Gboyega Oyetola, a decisive advantage over the PDP candidate, Ademola Adeleke.
In their calculations, Omisore has taken away the votes that ought to have been won by the PDP candidate, who according to unconfirmed reports, is trailing the APC candidate, from results from the 30 local councils being collated.
Omisore proved he has a solid home base when he thrashed all the other candidates, by winning his polling unit with 166 votes, leaving the APC, PDP and to scramble for the remaining 60 votes. PDP only scored nine votes at polling unit 3, Moore ward in Ile-Ife.
He went on to win his Moore ward 11 by polling 2663 votes, while the APC candidate won 706 votes. The PDP candidate came a distant third winning 342 votes. ADC got 26 and ADP 145 votes

During the Kogi state bye- election On the 11th August 2018 the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Haruna Isah, was declared winner Isah scored 26, 860 votes to defeat Alhaji Bashir Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who scored 14, 845 votes. The margin was 12,015 About 19,960 votes from 17 polling units were cancelled. Here too the cancelled votes were more than the margin but INEC went ahead to declared the APC candidate winner. Why was the election not declared inconclusive?

It happened in Kogi, IMO and Anambra State. Heaven did not fall. Rocha's was leading with 2000 votes in IMO State in 2011 as an APGA candidate contesting against PDP, it was declared inclusive but he later won. In 2015, Rocha's was leading with 3000 votes as a seating Governor under APC, it was declared inclusive. He later won. In Kogi, Prince Abubakar Audu, was leading it was declared inclusive and APC won. So PDP should go and study the electoral act as well as the constitution before confusing their followers.
