Afrobeats superstar, Davido, has vowed never to apologise to Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State for publishing his West African Senior School Certificate Examination, WASSCE, result.

Davido made the vow on Tuesday when he featured in an interview on News Central Television.

DAILY POST recalls that the singer had blasted Okpebholo for mocking his uncle, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, over his frequent dancing at public events.

Davido reacted by sharing Okpebholo’s WASSCE result on his Instagram story, a move many social media users interpreted as a response to the governor’s remarks.

When asked if he would apologise to the Edo governor, the singer said, “I am not going to apologize to Monday Okpebholo. I posted his WAEC results for the people of Edo State to see who is governing them.

“The road to your Government House is not constructed. We will visit him when it is time for his re-election.”

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has scheduled September 19, 2026, for the bye-election to fill the vacant Gombe/Kwami/Funakaye Federal Constituency seat in the House of Representatives.

The seat became vacant following the death of the lawmaker who represented the constituency, Tongo Yaya.

INEC announced the election date in its timetable and schedule of activities released on Tuesday.

The commission said the election would be conducted in line with the 1999 Constitution and the Electoral Act.

According to the timetable, INEC will publish the Notice of Election on August 20, while political parties will hold their primaries between August 21 and 25.

The list of candidates will be published on September 8, while campaigns will begin on September 9 and end on September 17.

INEC urged all political parties to adhere to the timetable and obey the law throughout the electoral process.

The commission also promised to ensure a fair contest for all candidates and political parties taking part in the election.

INEC said the bye-election would cover 903 polling units, 31 registration areas and three local government areas.

The electoral body also called on eligible voters in the constituency to participate in the election and exercise their civic responsibility peacefully.

The Director-General of the OK Movement, Peter Ameh, has resigned his position.

Ameh announced his resignation on Tuesday in Abuja, stating that it took immediate effect.

According to Ameh, he was leaving to focus on his bid to represent Kogi East in the Senate in 2027 on the platform of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC.

“I hereby formally tender my resignation as Director-General of the OK Movement, effective immediately.

“This decision will enable me to devote the necessary time and energy to my campaign for the Kogi East Senatorial District, where I am the candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC,” Ameh wrote in his resignation letter.

Meanwhile, he reaffirmed his loyalty to the NDC’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, whom he described as his leader.

DAILY POST reports that it is barely a month since Ameh was appointed the DG of the Movement.

The OK Movement is a group of supporters of the NDC presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and his running mate, Rabi’u Kwankwaso.
