The Governor of Osun State, Mr. Ademola Adeleke, has revealed the reasons he left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the Accord Party.
Adeleke affirmed that he officially joined the Accord Party on November 6, 2025, and will be seeking re-election in 2026 on the party’s platform after weeks of consultations and deliberations with stakeholders and opinion leaders.
“Stakeholders and residents of Osun State are aware of why we are taking this important decision. We intend to pursue a second term in office on the platform of the Accord Party to complete ongoing delivery of good governance and democratic dividends, which have been applauded at home and abroad.
“We opted for the Accord Party because its mission of welfarism aligns with our passionate focus on citizens and workers’ welfare. Since I joined, I have been fascinated by the philosophy of this great party. The primary essence of a government is the welfare and well being of the people,” he explained.
The governor welcomed the national leadership of the party to the state, noting that “you are now part of us as I am also now part of you.”
He stated that they are united in their commitment to progress and good intentions for the people of Osun State and Nigeria at large.
Governor Adeleke reiterated that the party’s task is to sustain a united front in preparation for future elections.
“We have a duty to ensure an inclusive leadership where the interests of all groups are cared for. Our party, Accord Party, is here to take over Osun governance and sustain the delivery of good governance in our dear state,” he added.
