The governorship debate for the upcoming Osun State election has been cancelled, as major candidates failed to attend. Both Governor Ademola Adeleke of the Accord Party and Bola Oyebamiji of the All Progressives Congress were absent from the online debate organized by BBC Yoruba. The Osun Media Governorship Debate was also called off due to the reluctance of candidates to participate and unfavorable security reports. One candidate, Olajide Esan of the African Action Congress, criticized the absence of his opponents, suggesting they have nothing new to offer the electorate. He urged voters to recognize the importance of their votes and choose leaders capable of addressing the state's challenges. The cancellation raises concerns about transparency and accountability in the electoral process as the election date approaches.
