IGNORE THREATS, TROOP OUT TO VOTE ACCORD ON AUGUST 15TH –GOV ADELEKE CHARGES OSUN VOTERS

Governor Ademola Adeleke has charged Osun residents and voters to ignore threats from the Osun APC and troop out en masse to vote for his re-election on August 15th.

Addressing a fully attended church service of the Winners Church at Osogbo this Sunday morning, the governor accused Marine Minister, Gboyega Oyetola; APC Candidate, Bola Oyebamiji; Senator Adenigba Fadahunsi and Hon. Wole Oke of unleashing violence on Osun people because the people have rejected them.

“Because the people have rejected them, because voters have endorsed me, because defeat stared them in the face, they resorted to violence. We are not scared. Osun people are not afraid.

“August 15, Osun people will show agents of violence that we are not cowards. Our people’s safety is guaranteed. Come out and vote. Punish those killing and maiming our people by voting against them on August 15th.

Governor Adeleke who declared that God gives power to whom He wills said his achievements in office overwhelmed Oyebamiji and Osun APC, narrating that “our achievements in workers welfare, health, education, infrastructure, agriculture and other sectors speaks for us.

“I will be victorious against Mr Oyebamiji and Osun APC on August 15. We represent the light and we shall overcome darkness. Osun people must rise and they are rising. We must and we are fighting for our rights to vote and be voted for”, the governor noted.

The resident pastor, the Winners’ Chapel, Pastor Adekunle Oluseyi had earlier declared the month and the service the reign and shower of blessings, praying to God to bless the governor and grant him wisdom to continue to pilot the affairs of the state.

GUBER POLLS: SAVE OSUN FROM IMPENDING POLICE-INDUCED GENOCIDE — GOVERNOR ADELEKE

Governor Ademola Adeleke has appealed to the Abdulsallam-led National Peace Committee to save Osun state from impending police-induced genocide ahead of Osun governorship elections.

Addressing the peace forum chaired by former Chief of Army Staff, Martins Agwai in company of Bishop Kukah and Cardinal John Onaiyekan, the governor raised alarm about systematic plot to kill, maim and incarcerate Osun Accord leaders through an unholy alliance between Osun APC thugs and the state police command.

Echoing the warning against political violence by the Ooni of Ife, Imperial Majesty Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi and the electoral commission chairman, Prof Amupitan, Governor Adeleke decried current concerted push to eliminate Accord party leaders, urging “our peace leaders to stop a progression towards genocide.

“I should have boycotted this peace meeting because of the violence unleashed on Osun State in the last few months, on the directive of Gboyega Oyetola. However, my presence is due to my very deep respect for our peace leaders here present.

“Our gathering is to endorse peace but my government and people are facing police sanctioned violence and intimidation. War is being waged actively against my people by Osun APC openly supported by the Osun state police Command.

“In the last three months, we have lost eight party members with more than 20 injured in gun attacks. There is no single prosecution or active arrest till date. The perpetrators are known Osun APC thugs with crimes committed in the presence of the police. Video evidence is everywhere on the internet.

“Top government officials are being harassed and intimidated. More than 60 Accord leaders have been arrested and moved to Abuja, and remanded in Abuja prisons and Nassarawa State prisons,

“This is supposed to be a democracy, where the police uphold the rule of law. Under which law can a state police commissioner take instructions from Mr Gboyega Oyetola to arrest Accord Party members in Osun State and move them to Abuja and be held in prisons without any charge?

“Why Abuja? We have both the Federal High Court and State high courts in Osun State, where anyone can be arraigned.

“I ask the Peace Committee to prevail upon the Inspector General of Police to return everyone in police custody. Those remanded in prisons should be returned to Osun State, and be charged to Courts in Osun State, if the police can show that they have committed any crime.

“There is an active plot to kill and maim Osun people before, during and after Osun elections. Our dear peace leaders, there is a active progression towards genocide in Osun state.

“We seek that you interface with Mr President to stop the Marine Minister, Gboyega Oyetola, the Osun APC and the Osun Police Commissioner from unleashing further violence on Osun people.

“We call on the police authorities to emulate other security agencies which have been very professional. Police must be impartial like other security agencies.

“We seek free and fair polls where peoples’ will should be supreme. Our people will severely resist rigging in all forms”, the governor noted

While commending Accord members and Osun people for not retaliating or resorting to self help, the governor said “This is not out of weakness but due to our firm belief in rule of law.

“Our request is for impartial policing, a fair and just electoral commission and supremacy of voters’ will at the polls”, the governor told the stakeholders which include politicians, civil society members and top security personnel.

BUNMI JENYO CONGRATULATES GOVERNOR ADELEKE, ACCORD OVER APPEAL COURT’S RULING

The Honourable Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Rev. Dr. Bunmi Jenyo has congratulated the Executive Governor of Osun State, Sen. Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke and its party, Accord over a landslide victory at the Court of Appeal against deregistration.

This was contained in a special message by the Commissioner, which was made available to newsmen in Osogbo on Tuesday.

Recall that some enemies of democracy have been clamouring and sponsoring tireless efforts to deregister Accord, African Democratic Congress (ADC) and other parties, to have unopposed election into power through the back door.

The Commissioner who returned the Glory to GOD for being a strong pillar of Governor Adeleke against the agents of darkness, maintained that the setting aside of the purported deregistration by the Appeal Court is a victory for democracy.

He congratulated Governor Ademola Adeleke, leaders and members of Accord in Osun State and Nigeria as a whole, saying every lover of democracy in the country should be happy and be rest assured of egalitarian society, in no distant future.

He frowned at the insensitive mentality of some APC stalwarts in Osun State, insinuating that the Accord would not be on the ballot, regarding August 15 gubernatorial poll, saying publicly that the unpopular party would face an empty goal-post.

The Commissioner also congratulated the entire people of Osun State, because their choiced party, Accord is firmly the first political platform on the ballot, come August 15 2026.

“I heartily congratulate my Principal, the Executive Governor of Osun State, Sen. Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, the leadership and members of Accord, and the entire citizens of Osun State on this landmark judgment of the Appeal Court today”, the Commissioner said.

“It has laid to rest the controversy, anxiety and fear of our people regarding the August 15 governorship in Osun State. Accord is on the ballot. Accord will win the forthcoming polls in Osun State convincingly”, he said.

APPRECIATION!!!

The Honourable Commissioner for Commerce and Industry in Osun State, Rev. Dr. Bunmi Jenyo has expressed deep appreciation to the Executive Governor of Osun State, Sen. Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke on the historic commissioning of Ila-Orangun Township Dual Carriageway, held on Thursday, 23rd July, 2026.

The Commissioner who lauded the Ila-Orangun community residents for trooping out to welcome Governor Adeleke, applauded the current administration for effective delivery of democracy dividends to the people of Osun State.

He particularly applauded Governor Adeleke for fulfilling the seemingly impossible promise of Ila-Orangun Township Road Dualisation project. According to the Commissioner, naysayers believed it was not going to be realised.

“I congratulate His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Osun State, Sen. Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, Kabiyesi Orangun of Ila-Orangun, Oba Wahab Oyedotun, the Chiefs, Community leaders, indigenes (both home and abroad) and residents of the ancient city of Igbomina on this great achievement”.

“It is indeed a new dawn in Ila Orangun. Since the creation of Osun State in 1991 till this Governor Adeleke’s time, successive administrations have not been able to upgrade Ila-Orangun to this present status in the comity of communities in Osun State”, the Commissioner said.

“This is a visible, viable and a productive gesture for the people of Ila-Orangun and its environs. It will help in the socio-economic activities and transformation of our community and people. We do not take this magnanimity for granted”.

The Commissioner, who urged the residents to support, mobilise and vote for Imole Continuity Agenda, for the second phase of the Dualisation project, said Governor Ademola Adeleke is a GOD-sent to turn Osun State into small London, in the space of eight years.

According to Dr. Jenyo, Governor Ademola Adeleke can be trusted for the second term of four years, 2026 – 2030, because he is a talk-and-do, passionate and keeper of electoral promises.

He charged everyone to come out on August 15th, 2026 and cast their votes for the man of the moment, Governor Ademola Adeleke through the political platform of Accord.

“It is time to reciprocate the good gesture of the incumbent, my Principal Governor Adeleke, come August 15th, let’s vote wisely for continuity of good governance in every nook and cranny of Osun State. Let us show the world that we are indeed very grateful to Governor Adeleke, let us pay him back with our votes”, the Commissioner said.

I HAVE PROVEN MY LOVE FOR IWO, SAYS ADELEKE

The Executive Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke has reiterated his committed to the development of Iwo, noting that the construction of the first ever dual-carriageway in the ancient town is a manifestation of his deep love for Iwo town.

Governor Adeleke said his administration has changed the story of Iwo unlike the deceit that characterised the past under his predecessors, saying that the newly constructed dual carriageway will open up Iwo for genuine development.

“In the past, Iwo had suffered neglect. These great people were abandoned by many past leaders,” Governor Adeleke noted, adding that “Our administration changed that story. We stopped the fake saying of ‘Iwo is my second city’. We opened up this city for genuine development.

“In the beginning, some people doubted our sincerity. They thought we were playing politics when we announced the dualisation project.

“Today, we prove that we truly love Iwo people. Iwo City Centre and Palace Square are now redesigned and reconstructed. This multi-focussed dualisation project is concluded to the glory of God and man.”

Governor Adeleke said his opponents deliberately instigated the unlawful seizure of local governments fund to disrupt the developmental projects embarked upon across the state by his administration, maintaining that his government’s sole goal is to fast-track Osun development notwithstanding obstacles placed on its way.

“The opposition was shocked by our commitment to the development of Iwo and other cities and towns in Osun state. That was the reason they invented the local government crisis to financially strangulate us,” he said.

“Despite these anti-people, anti-development actions, we completed many mega-projects for Iwo, Ila Orangun, Ile Ife, Ilesa, Osogbo, Ede and several towns in Osun state. We broke the chains of under-development.

“The sole goal of our leadership is to fast track Osun development through life changing projects and programmes. We are doing this on the basis of fairness to all, better life for Osun people and collective prosperity for residents and sons and daughters of our dear state.

“We are committed to taking this vision further. We are determined to commence the second phase of the project once we are re-elected on August 15. We need your continuous support and backing for more transformation to take place. Iwo city and Osun state in general should never go back to slavery and deceitful governance” concluded the Governor.

I FULFILLED MY PROMISES ON UNIVERSITY OF ILESA – GOV. ADELEKE

● COMMISSIONS LANDMARK PROJECTS

Governor Ademola Adeleke today commissioned six different projects at the University of Ilesa, declaring that he has fulfilled his electoral promises on the actualisation of the University.

Speaking at the university campus amidst massive welcome rally by students and staff, the governor said “within such a short period, I am proud that the University has taken its rightful place within the Nigerian university system. Our baby is growing to become an adult”

The governor spoke further: “To our royal fathers and the entire Ijesa sons and daughters, I have fulfilled my pledge to make this university a reality. Your dream, our dream, is now a reality that nobody can play politics with.

“From audio pronouncement by the previous administration, our government enacted a state law establishing the university, providing a framework for its governance. We secured accreditation of several courses.

“With strong political will, we appoint world class administrators to man the university. We oversee a smooth transition from the defunct Osun State College of Education, Ilesa to a University without any negative effect on staff.

“We implemented the conversion of all temporary/contract staff of the defunct College to permanent and pensionable staff. We paid all outstanding allowances owed by the Management of the defunct College. We approved and implemented new university salary structures, including payment of arrears. We ensured payment of half salaries owed to workers in Osun State as well as the release of withheld cooperative and other deductions.

“As a government committed to workers’ welfare, we implemented regular promotion of staff with financial backing. Aside approval of implementation of the new salary scale for academic staff, similar approval will soon be extended to non-teaching staff once the financial status of the state improves.

“Despite the financial challenges of the last two years, we are also upgrading the physical infrastructures within the university. Today’s gathering is a manifestation of our commitment to upgrade this university in terms of its internal facilities and academic infrastructures”, the governor told a cheering crowd of the University community.

Welcoming the governor, the Deputy Governor, Prince Kola Adewusi and other top administration and party officials, the Vice Chancellor of the University, Prof Olufemi Ashaolu expressed gratitude to the governor for his commitment for the actualisation of the University, declaring that “in just 3 years, UNILESA has grown from a vision to a thriving academic community of 12 Faculties, one College of Health Sciences, 110 Academic Programmes, and over 15,000 students.

“This remarkable growth has positively impacted the socio- economic fortunes of our host communities and Osun State at large. This would not have been possible without your visionary leadership, consistent funding, and personal commitment to make UNILESA a centre of excellence.

Prof Ashaolu noted that the projects for commissioning by the governor include the remodeled Faculty of Law Annex Building, the remodeled Faculty of Public Health building, reconstructed Internal road network, the new hostel buildings, the female medical hostel; and the Faculty of Basic Clinical Sciences.
