A Senator representing one of the senatorial district in Osun, has sparked controversy after allegedly calling on supporters to kill members of the Accord Party ahead of Saturday’s governorship election.


The All Progressives Congressmember made the remarks in a video shared by Afrobeat singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido.

Davido, who shared the video on social media, described the lawmaker as a sitting senator and provided an English translation of the senator’s remarks.

According to the translation shared by Davido, … said, “From now on, whenever you see Accord members, kill them. I authorise you to kill them. They have wives and children too.

“This is a Federal Government election. On election day, even if they come with voter cards, we won’t allow them to vote.”

In the video, the person was seen addressing supporters in Yoruba while speaking about the Accord Party and the forthcoming election.

In another portion of the remarks, according to the translation, the senator said, “What kind of life is that? If we hear anything about Accord in Ilesa here, record me and go and tell them.

“When we tell them, the cap they are putting on is a bad one, yellow one.

“So, we have come to tell you now, from now till the election day, if we see them, kill them o.”

The alleged comments come days before voters in Osun State are expected to head to the polls to elect a governor, with incumbent Governor Ademola Adeleke seeking re-election on the platform of the Accord Party.

The remarks, if accurately translated and presented in context, could heighten concerns over political violence and intimidation in the state, where rival political camps have traded allegations ahead of the election.

The development also comes amid repeated appeals by security agencies, political parties and election stakeholders for supporters to shun violence and ensure a peaceful electoral process.

Political tensions have intensified in Osun in the final days of the campaign, with rival camps accusing one another of political intimidation and inflammatory rhetoric.

The worst are the docile population who don’t know how to organize and resist, the ones who are expecting the system to work without their input and physical activism.

History tells us that people who can’t resist and fight oppression are conquered.

Helinues, what do you have to say about this ?

The Tinubu government and the security agencies will continue to unlook despite the Senator having no immunity. It is this culture of having different rules for different individuals according to their political affiliations that has become the hallmark of the Tinubu regime.

Why is sharing the video? Why can't davido call Donald trump directly to report the senator na 🤣

Why is he sharing the video? Why can't he call Donald trump directly and play the video for Donal Trump

Forget about Davido for a minute. The APC is resorting to killing their own kinfolk just to reclaim Osun which Tinubu lost to Atiku in 2023. Is that what he meant when he said "all is fair in politics?"

read and understand before you quote, didn't you read where it was davido that share it on social media? It's not must to quote if you don't have anything to say

The Senator's comment though inappropriate is being blown out of context. He was talking about Accord members who have been going about killing APC members and he followed it up by saying that if they catch any of the Accord killers, they will kill them. We should try and understand the context in which he made the comment.

Sometimes, seat back and think deep about your life,and your future, is this how you plan to remain?

Meanwhile,this is the kind of leaders Tinubu grooms that's why the Lagos State economy thrives on extortion by touts

My anger is that some of these Tinubu supporters are children of the NURTW men who run after vehicles from morning to night to feed the family.....

Ndi Igbo are blessed

And you are still trying to justify such inhuman statements coming from a supposedly Distinguished Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Tinubu has conditioned the minds of his people to see agbero work as a decent and lucrative career.....

I am disappointed once again in you, Indeed, you guys are all the same

Assuming but not conceding that that was what he said which we all know it wasn't, is he now a law unto himself that will unilaterally proclaim death on accord members in response to whatever? You all will provide justification for any crime and even allow anyone get away with murder as long as they pledge support to APC. I hope you all know Nigeria will still be here long after Tinubu leaves power?

Are you blind to he part of my post where I said the Senator's comment is inappropriate?

Some of the APC members are higer killers

APC is a party of killers

Will?!! Lol... Country wey don burn finish.

APC started seriously dividing the nation from the moment Buhari took over, and they have taken it up a notch under Tinubu.

Nigeria may truly be finished at this point.

Wild wild west. No wonder Seyi Makinde and Jackson the Dancing Governor raised the alarm but people thought they were joking.

Surrounded by thugs but claim they are democracy struggle fighters. The leopard cannot use charcoal to change its dark spots, e go show las las who e really be.

If you want to argue with your keypad, please remember that old Soldier Buhari told everyone to go to and fight fair. As much as I rate his government as a failure, history also recorded what he did that was good. He allowed everyone fight for themsleves in the name of democracy.

This one will soon meet his ancestors naturally from his looks. Old age no be sense

I wasn't blind to the part where you attempted to justify his comment, despite knowing it was inappropriate. Continue to provide excuses for a man that has already backtracked and is now trying to do damage control for an obvious crime.

The man has already said his style. You have to fight for it

The bishops raised the alarm about "premature politics" and a creeping danger of Nigeria degenerating into a one-party dominant state. They noted that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) seemed poised to win at all costs, potentially rendering voters' choices meaningless in 2027.

Tinubu welcomed the challenge but made it clear he would not hand over power easily. He told the clerics: "Those who would take it from me will try. They will try. All is fair in politics, and there is equal opportunity. I won't offer them a red carpet."

"Everyone claims to be democratic but not everyone is faithful to his or her word. We have governments that are democracies on paper, but not in function. They are democracies in form but not in substance. We have governments that only know democracy primarily through breaching it"

Don’t follow politics with emotions because they’re all same. You’ve to be neutral minded to understand the content in this video, according to my understanding it’s game of first to do no dey pain.
The senator is wrong for calling war for war.
For those who don’t understand Yoruba i will explain to you
The senator said accord people have been killing APC, he now asked the crowd ( the people they’re killing are they not your people) , he now said if they also see Accord people they should kill him. Which is wrong anyway but we have seen video, pictures of APC supporters attacked by Accord supporters , killed by Accord supporters. I never saw anyone of Accord being attacked so don’t support Davido post he hasn’t condemned Accord supporter attacking APC 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 so he should shut up

press9jatv has also endorsed the statement.

Very funny! A Senator says this and you said it in such a cavalier manner.

In what ever context you deem it,what he said was wrong,he is a leader and yiu shouldn't preach violence for any reason......the appropriate thing is to call on the authorities to investigate and apprehend the culprits.

I keep saying it politicians it doesn't matter how young or old they are, they are the most foolish people on earth and miserable with zero thoughts of eternity and zero fear of God. The god of this world has blindfolded them.
