Adeleke Limits Coalition with Tinubu to Presidential Race

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke stated that the coalition backing President Bola Tinubu's re-election is strictly for the presidential election and will not influence the National Assembly and state House of Assembly elections. At the inauguration of the Osun State Presidential Campaign Council in Osogbo, he set a target of over 1.5 million votes for Tinubu in the state.

Adeleke emphasized that the alliance includes members from the All Progressives Congress, Accord Party, and Peoples Democratic Party, describing it as a strong coalition. He clarified that the partnership would conclude after the presidential election, allowing parties to support their own candidates in legislative races.

Additionally, he mentioned that negotiations with the Federal Government regarding local government control in Osun are nearing completion. Ajibola Basiru, the APC National Secretary, urged party members to support Adeleke's coordination of the campaign, regardless of personal ambitions.
