NIGERIA’S acclaimed dancing governor of Osun State, Ademola Jackson Adeleke, has revealed that Titilola Adeleke, not Erelu Ngozi, is the official First Lady of Osun State.
This has put paid to the purported lingering feud between his two delectable wives both of whom were flexing muscles via posters as first ladies ahead of the visit of Mrs Oluremi Tinubu, wife of Nigeria’s President.

Governor Adeleke also reportedly disowned the flyer purportedly from the office of the second of his wives, Mrs Ngozi Adeleke, welcoming Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu to the state.
The state government had announced Mrs Tinubu’s impending visit to the state on Tuesday during which she would turn the sod of the Alternative High School For Girls at Oke D.O, Ilesha Road, Osogbo.

Following the announcement, two different flyers from Titilola and Ngozi, both wives of the governor welcoming the wife of the President to the state, went viral on the internet.
Stonix News had reported that on the two flyers, both women were referred to as First Lady of Osun State, raising concerns about who would actually receive Tinubu between the two rivals of the governor.
In a statement on Monday, the spokesperson for the state governor, Olawale Rasheed, said Titilola Adeleke was the First Lady of the state and would receive Tinubu during the visit.
Hear him: “The attention of Mr Governor has been drawn to fake news in circulation about conflict over who among the Governor’s two wives is to host the First Lady of Nigeria, Her Excellency, Senator Oluremi Tinubu on her official visit to the State tomorrow.
“For clarification, Chief (Mrs) Titilola Adeleke, the First Lady of Osun State, is officially hosting the First Lady of the Republic tomorrow in line with the directive of Mr Governor. There is no confusion on this official position.
“The state government under Governor Ademola Adeleke is set to receive the First Lady and her team in Osun State.”
