The Impartial Nationwide Electoral Fee (INEC) has moved its Resident Electoral Commissioner in Osun State, Dr Mutiu Agboke, to Ondo State, simply months earlier than the subsequent governorship election.

Dr Agboke confirmed his switch in a message shared on Wednesday.

His motion is coming at a time when preparations are regularly increase for the Ondo governorship ballot.

In his assertion, he wrote, “Good night all.

“I’ve been transferred to Ondo State. I thanks most sincerely for the help given to me all through my keep right here in Osun state.

“Could God Almighty help you all as properly.”

His exit from Osun follows months of lively engagement throughout the state. He had not too long ago held conferences with political stakeholders in all 30 native authorities areas.

The conferences centered on voter consciousness and peaceable participation forward of the August 15, 2026 governorship election.

The switch is seen as a part of INEC’s routine administrative reshuffling. Such strikes are sometimes carried out to strengthen electoral preparations and guarantee neutrality forward of main elections.
