“I was there live! I witnessed history!!!” the singer wrote in a post on X on Thursday.

The music star had earlier expressed support for his uncle ahead of the August 15 Osun governorship election, sharing photos of himself with the governor and writing, “We got this #aadeleke_01 God got us.”

The development follows the controversy surrounding the EFCC’s freezing of Osun State Government’s account over alleged financial issues, a move that drew criticism from the state government.

President Tinubu later directed the EFCC to return to court and seek the vacation of the order, expressing concern over the timing of the action with the governorship election only days away.

According to Onanuga, Tinubu also informed Governor Adeleke during a phone conversation on Thursday about his directive to the anti-graft agency.
