Tinubu Directs EFCC to Lift Freeze on Osun Account
On Thursday, President Bola Tinubu communicated with Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke via telephone, as disclosed by the president’s media aide, Bayo Onanuga, on his official X handle. During this conversation, President Tinubu informed Governor Adeleke of his directive to the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) to lift the court order that had been freezing the Osun State Government's account.
This development comes amid escalating tensions in Osun State as the August 15, 2026 gubernatorial election approaches. Allegations of intimidation have surfaced, with Governor Adeleke accusing the All Progressives Congress (APC) of using government agencies to harass his supporters, claiming that over 60 individuals have been arrested by the police.
The conversation between Tinubu and Adeleke is anticipated to help alleviate the rising tensions ahead of the upcoming elections.
