Tinubu Meets Osun Governor Adeleke After Re-election

President Bola Tinubu met with Ademola Adeleke, the Governor of Osun State, at the State House in Abuja on Thursday evening. Adeleke arrived at the Presidential Villa and proceeded to a closed-door meeting with the president.

This meeting occurred less than a week after Adeleke secured re-election for a second term in the Osun State governorship election held on August 15, 2026. The meeting is significant as it comes amid increasing political realignments ahead of the 2027 general election.

While the specific agenda of the meeting was not disclosed, it is anticipated that discussions could involve developments in Osun State, governance, federal-state relations, and broader national political issues. Notably, Adeleke has expressed his support for Tinubu's second term bid in the upcoming January 2027 presidential election, despite being a member of the Accord Party, which differs from Tinubu's All Progressives Congress (APC).
