JUST IN: Governor Adeleke Defects To Accord Party

OSUN State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has officially defected to the Accord Party, less than 24 hours before the party’s governorship primaries.

It will be recalled that the Governor recently resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing the prolonged national leadership crisis within the party as his reason for stepping aside.

The declaration ceremony is currently taking place at the Banquet Hall of the Osun State Government House, with national officers of the Accord Party in attendance.

Also present at the event are members of the Osun State Executive Council and a large number of government officials who appear to be moving with the Governor into his new party.

More details shortly…
