Osun deserves better than the present governor. We deserve a leader with vast knowledge about governance, an overall leader that knows everything about anything anytime anyday.
The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) of Osun State chapter has pitched itself as a superior option to Governor Ademola Adeleke of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which is now in power in the state of Osun.
This comes as the race to become governor of Osun in 2026 gains momentum. The party believes that a change of leadership is necessary for the state to regain its former prominence
The party asserted that the current pitiful condition of Osun should be a matter of concern for every indigene.
The Adeleke administration, according to Odeyemi, is acting more like the opposition and ignoring actual governing, while simultaneously promising a lot and never delivering.
Dr. Tosin Odeyemi, the party chairman, issued a statement claiming that Governor Ademola Adeleke’s government poses a twofold threat to the state’s prosperity.
Odeyemi said, “Expectations were high when PDP was about to take over from APC in 2018, moreso when they had a candidate that people believed is well-to-do enough to even help the state in all ramifications.
“But reversed is the case now. So many promises left unfulfilled. The ruling party is fighting from all fronts as if they are the opposition instead of facing real governance.
“Our collective money is being spent on uncountable aides the state government is rolling out employment letters to everyday, some of which have not stepped the state in the last two years.
“Local government administration has been grounded for almost two months now, yet, the state government is not seeing any reason to tell the truth about the whole matter.
“Billions of naira is being earmarked for Infrastructural Plans despite the fact that many of these projects have been captured in this year’s budget. For how long are we going to deceive ourselves.
“For us in NNPP, we strongly believe that the state of the Living Spring deserves better. We deserve a leader with vast knowledge about governance, an overall leader that knows everything about anything anytime anyday. Osun deserves better than the present governor.”
