The Osun state Governor, Ademola Adeleke is set to join the All Progressive Congress from the Peoples Democratic Party, our correspondent reliably gathered.
A source close to the Governor told GISTSMATE MEDIA correspondent that the Governor is currently holding a meeting with the PDP leaders in the state.
“Yes, over possible defection, the Governor is currently in a stakeholders meeting with PDP leaders in the state. In fact, there are indications that they will collapse PDP structure into APC,” the source said.
While the move has sent panic into the APC, with an anti-Adeleke protest staged on Friday, the governor, in a statement by his spokesman, Olawale Rasheed, denied nursing such a plan.
The defection rumour began in June when Adeleke visited President Bola Tinubu in his Bourdillon, Lagos home.
The Osun governor was accompanied by his billionaire businessman brother, Adedeji Adeleke, and Afrobeat star nephew, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido.
The meeting was revealed in an X post by Tinubu’s Special Assistant on Social Media, Dada Olusegun.
Though Olusegun did not state the purpose of the visit, tension flared within both the Osun PDP and APC camps when photographs from the visit surfaced on social media, showing the President and his wife in close shots with the Adelekes.
After a brief lull, the defection rumour resurfaced during the week following a series of posts made by the governor’s aides on social media.
