Wike’s Political Intrigues and the PDP Crisis: Why Osun Must Defend Adeleke’s Mandate

Image
  Wike’s Political Intrigues and the PDP Crisis: Why Osun Must Defend Adeleke’s Mandate By Dr. Akinlooye Sarafadeen Olatunde, PhD The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State is currently navigating one of its toughest internal battles ahead of the 2026 governorship election . Although Governor Ademola Adeleke has met every requirement for nomination, the deep crisis rocking the national leadership of the party has thrown the entire process into uncertainty. After purchasing and submitting his nomination forms and undergoing successful screening, Osun PDP expected a smooth path to the primaries. Instead, the party was plunged into chaos following the suspension and counter-suspension of key national officers—an internal conflict widely linked to the political maneuvers of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory , Nyesom Wike . Despite serving under an APC-led government , Wike continues to assert himself as a major PDP stakeholder while allegedly working against the pa...

APC DREAM OF TAKING OVER OSUN GOVERNANCE COME 2026: IT’S A MIRAGE MISSION AND A PIPE DREAM

Image
  APC DREAM OF TAKING OVER OSUN GOVERNANCE COME 2026 : IT’S A MIRAGE MISSION AND A PIPE DREAM By Arewa Oluwaseun The recent press statement issued by the Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) only exposes the party’s desperation, disarray and diminishing political relevance ahead of the 2026 gubernatorial election . It is a confession of frustration, a broadcast of political fatigue and a desperate attempt to resuscitate a party long declared brain-dead by the people of Osun. Their so-called warning to Governor Ademola Adeleke to prepare his handover note is not only technically shallow and delusion but politically laughable, socially disconnected, morally hypocritical and logically defective. The APC’s dream of returning to power in Osun is nothing but a mirage mission and a pipe dream conceived in the womb of self-deceit. It is a grand total illusion rooted in wishful thinking rather than political reality. From a governance and administrative standpoint, ...

Beyond “Emi Lo Kan”: Rethinking Leadership and Competence in Nigeria’s Political Landscape

Image
  Beyond “ Emi Lo Kan ”: Rethinking Leadership and Competence in Nigeria’s Political Landscape By Dr. Akinlooye Sarafadeen Olatunde, PhD The phrase “Emi Lo Kan” — meaning “It’s my turn” — popularized by the current President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu , has evolved beyond a campaign slogan. It has become a political anthem, particularly among leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Yet, while it resonated as a rallying cry during the presidential campaign, its growing adoption across different states and political circles raises deep questions about the direction of Nigeria’s democracy . The aftermath of the “Emi Lo Kan” success at the national level has not produced the kind of transformation Nigerians hoped for. The country continues to battle worsening economic hardship, insecurity, unemployment, and a decline in the standard of living. These realities suggest that the “turn-by-turn” mentality may not be serving the true purpose of de...

Governor Ademola Nurudeen Jackson Adeleke has changed the very language of leadership in Osun . His governance is not a carnival of noise but a classroom of results. Under his watch, government has returned to the people roads repaired, schools revived, hospitals functional, and civil servants rehumanized. Osun breathes again through performance, not propaganda. Yet, governance cannot t...

 A Good Term Deserves Another: Governor Ademola Adeleke , the Architect of a New Osun State It is often said that a good term deserves another, and this timeless adage perfectly encapsulates the visionary leadership and transformative governance of the Executive Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Nurudeen Jackson Adeleke . Since his assumption of office, Governor Adeleke has redefined governance through purposeful leadership, massive infrastructural renewal, and people-oriented policies that have repositioned Osun State for sustainable growth and development.
