Nigerian singer Davido says the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is set to win the ongoing Osun governorship election while accusing the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of attempts to scuttle the election process through vote-buying.

“All the info coming in is looking very good for PDP and it is making APC jittery and desperate. Please tell our people that are yet to vote that every vote is needed. Everyone needs to go out to vote now!!!”

Davido in a series of tweets campaigning for his uncle and PDP’s candidate, Ademola Adeleke, described the APC’s alleged attempts to buy votes as desperate.

“Panic in APC camp. Offering people money they don’t even have. Don’t listen to them. Protect your vote. Chop their money, vote your PDP vote.

“They must go. Nothing they can do this time around. #OsunDecides2022. Them dey promise people money them no get. People dey change am for them. Rubbish,” the singer tweeted.
