The Osun East Senatorial leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party have thrown their weight behind President Bola Tinubu and Governor Ademola Adeleke as their preferred presidential and governorship candidates.
This was contained in a statement released by the Senatorial leader, Akindele Famuyide (Jagu), at the end of its monthly meeting held on Thursday and made available to The PUNCH.
Among other things, they also emphasised that there is no vacancy at Aso Rock Villa.
According to Famuyide, both the President and the governor have shown exemplary and continued leadership in their first few years in office.
The statement read, “Osun East PDP unanimously declared their endorsement of President and Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Ademola Nurudeen Jackson Adeleke for a second term in office come 2026 and 2027 respectively.
“We applaud the President’s transformative infrastructure projects and sound economic policies, which have already begun to yield tangible benefits—most notably the significant reduction in food prices and marked improvements in national security.”
Famuyide also called on the President to sustain his drive towards delivering greater achievements for Nigeria’s future.
He noted that the endorsement goes beyond mere symbolism.
“It is a clear reflection of genuine confidence and satisfaction with President Tinubu and Governor Adeleke’s delivery of democratic dividends.
“There is no credible opposition within our ranks—the entire Osun East bloc stands resolutely united behind this historic decision,” the statement declared.
