INEC uploads over 80% of Osun election results to IReV

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) released over 80 % of the Osun state gubernatorial election results on its Result‑Viewing Portal (IReV) on 15 August 2026, completing the bulk of the data transfer from the day’s vote.^[5][6]

Progressive Uploads of Election Results

The release of returns began at 37 % on the evening of the election, with a daily‑post report at 16:32 UTC noting that “INEC had uploaded 37 % of Osun state gubernatorial election results to its IReV portal.”^[1]

Within a few hours the commission had increased the disclosure to 60 %, as reported at 18:43 UTC by an additional daily‑post check.^[3]

Later checks recorded 70 % of returns posted by 19:39 UTC, according to a daily‑post update, and 63.51 % by 17:34 UTC according to a Tribune Online post.^[2][4]

Thorough Data Release

By 19:53 UTC the pipeline had culminated in more than 80.23 % of the Osun governor‑election results available on IReV, with Tribune Online announcing the milestone at 18:45 UTC and a daily‑post post at 19:11 UTC confirming the same figure.^[5][6]

Implications for Transparency

The staggered releases mirrored INEC’s earlier commitment to publish results promptly, a policy that was first highlighted by the commission’s announcement during the election day period.^[1]

With the bulk of data now released, voters across the 30 local government areas can consult the portal to verify vote tallies and seat allocations as the commission finalizes the official outcomes.^[2]
