Amid growing speculation over Governor Ademola Adeleke’s rumoured defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC), the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State has declared total loyalty to the governor, vowing to follow him “anywhere he goes.”
The PDP leaders, in a crucial meeting on Saturday at the Government House Banquet Hall in Osogbo, passed a vote of confidence on Adeleke, pledging solidarity with his political decisions.
The development comes days after Spear News reported that the governor was in talks to join the APC, a move seen as a strategic play to strengthen President Bola Tinubu’s support in the South-West ahead of the 2027 elections.
Governor Adeleke, who addressed the gathering, assured party leaders that he was still consulting widely before making any final decisions. However, the PDP leadership, in a rare show of unity, declared that they would stand by him regardless of his choice.
