Adeleke Backs Tinubu for President, Supports Accord Candidates
On October 29, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke stated that voters in Osun will support Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, in the 2027 election while voting for Accord Party candidates in the National and State Assembly elections. Adeleke made this announcement during the inauguration of the campaign committee for the re-election of Senator Lere Oyewumi of the Accord Party in Ede.
He assured that this voting arrangement would not confuse voters, despite the ‘Rainbow Coalition’ led by Minister Nyesom Wike. Adeleke, represented by his deputy Kola Adewusi, reiterated that the presidential vote would go to Tinubu, while the legislative votes would favor the Accord Party.
He praised Oyewumi as a quality representative and urged the campaign committee to work diligently for his victory. Oyewumi attributed Accord's growing acceptance to Adeleke's leadership, promising continued development in Osun West.
Adeleke had previously defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the Accord Party in December 2025.
