The political landscape in Osun State has taken a fascinating turn ahead of the upcoming general elections, as former Deputy Governor and immediate past National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Iyiola Omisore, formally recognized Governor Ademola Adeleke as the state coordinator for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election campaign. This development came to light on a Thursday in Osogbo during the high-profile inauguration of the Osun State chapter of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, drawing key political actors together in a striking display of cross-party alignment.
Speaking at the event, Omisore emphasized that the gathering underscored a broader consensus that transcends traditional party divisions. Whether hailing from the ruling party, Accord, or the Peoples Democratic Party, stakeholders are setting aside partisan differences to push the country forward through a collective resolve to secure a second term for President Tinubu. He noted that working hand in hand with Governor Adeleke marks a strategic step toward unifying local political forces to deliver massive support from the state.
Governor Adeleke used the platform to rally members of the diverse political coalition, reassuring them that the presidential alliance would not compromise their individual parties’ prospects in the upcoming National Assembly and state House of Assembly elections. Making it clear that the collaborative effort is strictly tailored for the presidential race, the governor set an ambitious target of securing over 1.5 million votes for President Tinubu in Osun State, reinforcing a powerful commitment to the incumbent’s mandate.
