Osun APC Says Adeleke’s Visit to Akande Won’t Solve LG Crisis

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Tuesday criticized Governor Ademola Adeleke for visiting former state governor and ex-APC national chairman, Chief Bisi Akande.

The party claimed the visit was an attempt to find a way out of the ongoing dispute over the reinstated local government chairmen and councillors, but said it would not work.

According to the APC, Adeleke’s trip to Akande’s residence in Ibadan, Oyo State, would not solve the leadership crisis affecting the state’s local councils.

The party insisted that Akande, being a firm supporter of democracy, would not turn against his own party’s interests.

The APC also questioned Adeleke’s intentions, accusing him of being involved in incidents that led to the deaths of some of its members.

The party suggested that instead of visiting political figures, Adeleke should seek legal redress at the Supreme Court if he truly believes he has a case after the Akure verdict given on February 10, 2025.

The party further stated that Adeleke’s decision to approach Akande instead of the court showed that he had lost the battle over the local council leadership crisis.

They wondered why the governor was avoiding the Supreme Court if he was confident in his position.

The APC advised Adeleke to work with the reinstated local government chairmen and councillors to ensure development in the state, rather than trying to find political shortcuts.
