Osun Governor Adeleke Resigns From PDP Over Leadership Turmoil

Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has resigned from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) due to persistent leadership turmoil at the national level. Adeleke submitted his resignation to the party's ward officials, expressing gratitude for the support provided.

This move comes amidst reports suggesting that Adeleke may not contest the 2026 governorship election unless internal conflicts within the Osun State PDP are resolved. The party hopes for a resolution before the election timeline set by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
