A viral data analysis has sparked intense online debate after revealing an extraordinary surge in the number of registered voters at the polling unit linked to Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo.
According to figures shared by data analyst account Mundus (@mundus01) of Mundx Analytics, the governor’s own polling unit recorded just 397 voters on the register during the September 2024 Edo State governorship election.
By October 2026, that figure had ballooned to 4,783 — an increase of 4,386 voters, or a staggering 1,105%.

The 2026 number is drawn from INEC’s Preliminary Register of Voters, publicly viewable at the time of the analysis.
In a short video accompanying the post, the analyst juxtaposes the two official documents side by side, labels the jump a potential “Guinness World Record,” and directly tags the Independent National Electoral Commission with a simple demand: “INEC, please explain.”
The post notes that the current register remains preliminary. Claims and objections are still open before the final voters’ register is certified on 15 December 2026.
The revelation quickly gained traction, drawing thousands of views, likes, and replies. Some users questioned the integrity of the continuous voter registration process, while others called for broader scrutiny of other high-profile polling units.
As of the time of writing, INEC has not issued a public response to the specific figures from this polling unit.
The development adds fresh fuel to ongoing conversations about the transparency and accuracy of Nigeria’s voter register ahead of future elections.
