Afrobeats artist David Adeleke, known as Davido, calls on House of Representatives member James Faleke to respect the choice of voters in Osun State and to avoid pressuring the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over the governorship election outcome. The remarks come as results from the election held on August 15 are still being collated.
Vanguard and Daily Post Nigeria both report that Davido made the appeal in response to ongoing public debate about the election process and final declaration. Both outlets describe the message as a request for respect for the people’s verdict and caution against any actions that could be seen as influencing INEC. While the coverage centers on Davido’s call, neither report indicates that Davido directly challenges specific legal claims or provides additional evidence beyond urging restraint and deference to the electoral process.
Overall, the common theme across the two outlets is Davido’s public urging for peaceful, procedural respect for voters’ decisions as INEC continues collation work.
