2027: Tinubu’s Re-Election Endorsed By Adeleke, Osun PDP Leaders
Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke and the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state yesterday endorsed the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027.
The endorsement came after a stakeholders’ meeting at the Government House in Oke-Fia, Osogbo.
Also at the meeting, it was unanimously agreed that members should stay in the PDP after moves to join the All Progressives Congress (APC) have failed.
Adeleke was believed to have concluded plans to dump the PDP some weeks ago after consulting with the leadership of the party, and members agreed to follow him to any party of his choice.
A communique issued at the end of the meeting and endorsed by Adeleke said Deputy Governor Kola Adewusi, House of Assembly Speaker Adewale Egbedun, PDP Chairman Sunday Bisi, former Osun State Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola and 23 other leaders endorsed President Tinubu for a second term in office.
They said following extensive consultations, the Leadership Caucus of Osun PDP resolved that all politics is local, and as such, the feelings and aspirations of voters and party members are critical to decisions on party affiliations.
They added: “The majority of the members of the APC in Osun State are opposed to the idea of the defection of Governor Adeleke to the APC, which did not originate from the governor in the first instance.
Some APC leaders, based on entrenched interests, have demonstrated hostility and resentment towards Governor Adeleke. Some went on social media and national television to call Governor Adeleke all kinds of unprintable names.
“That the majority of PDP members in Osun State are not happy about the idea of the defection of Governor Adeleke to APC, but only reluctantly agreed to follow him (Adeleke) to wherever he goes to show their love, support, and loyalty to his leadership.”
They stressed that the governor, the state government, and the PDP as a political party remain very popular and acceptable above all other political parties in Osun State.
“The PDP in Osun State hereby adopts and endorses President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for re-election in the 2027 presidential election.”
“That PDP in Osun State reaffirms its adoption and endorsement of Governor Ademola Adeleke for re-election in the 2026 governorship election on the platform of the PDP.
“That Governor Ademola Adeleke and all members of the PDP in Osun State should remain in the PDP. The leadership of the PDP in Osun State is directed to disseminate the resolution to all structures of the party in the state.
“That the state governor is enjoined to forge ahead with governance and implementation of the administration’s Five Point Agenda.”
