The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says 3,556 of the 3,763 polling units in Osun State had opened for voting as of 8:30am on Saturday.

This represents 94.5 per cent of all polling units across the state.

According to INEC, the remaining 207 polling units, representing 5.5 per cent, experienced minor delays in opening.

 

The commission said all the affected polling units became operational by 9:00am, ensuring that voting proceeded across all polling units.

INEC also reported that the activation of Registration Area Centres (RACs) was completed successfully, with 100 per cent activation recorded by 6:09pm on Friday ahead of the governorship election.

Voters are expected to continue accreditation and voting until 2pm or until the last voter on the queue at each polling unit has cast their ballot, in line with the electoral guidelines.
