The All Progressives Congress (APC) has widened its lead over the Accord Party in a fresh results update released by the APC Social Media and Situation Room Team during the ongoing Osun State governorship election.

The update, released at 3:40 p.m., showed below.

According to the update, the figures were compiled from 508 polling units so far.

The latest figures put the APC ahead of Accord by 1,320 votes, representing a notable increase from the earlier margin reported by the party’s situation room.

The figures indicate a closely fought contest between the APC and Accord, with the two leading parties separated by just over 1,000 votes based on the results presented.

The APC Situation Room described the figures as “real-time updates”, suggesting that additional results are still expected from other polling units across the state.

However, the figures have not been independently verified and should not be regarded as the official result of the election.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) remains responsible for the verification, collation and declaration of the final governorship election results.

With results from only 508 polling units reflected in the latest update, the overall outcome remains uncertain, particularly as more results are expected from across Osun’s local government areas.

The narrowing or widening of the margin in subsequent updates could significantly shape expectations about the eventual winner.

Note: The figures reported above are based solely on the APC Social Media and Situation Room Team’s update shown in the supplied image and remain subject to official verification by INEC.

Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has sued President Bola Tinubu over the alleged forgery of his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) discharge certificate.
