The Great Reversal: 18 Lawmakers Who Fled PDP Now Flee Accord Party

18 Osun Lawmakers Set to Dump Accord Party Amid Leadership Crisis, Court Battle

Fresh political uncertainty is brewing in Osun State as no fewer than 18 lawmakers of the State House of Assembly are reportedly set to dump the Accord Party, barely months after defecting from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

According to a release signed by Yusuf Adegboye,the Secretary of the Accord Libration Movement of Osun Accord party, The planned exit, according to multiple party sources, is being driven by growing discontent over the party’s internal instability, particularly the unresolved leadership crisis currently before the court. The lingering legal battle over who controls the party structure has reportedly created confusion and weakened confidence among key stakeholders.

Insiders revealed that the lawmakers, who had initially moved to Accord in what was seen as a strategic political realignment, are now reconsidering their positions amid fears that the party may not provide the stable platform required for their political survival.

A source familiar with the development said the situation within the party has become increasingly untenable. “There is no clear leadership direction at the moment. The issue of who is in charge is still in court, and that uncertainty is affecting everyone,” the source said.

The crisis was further compounded by the resignation of Hon. Adesina Atanda Rabiu, the lawmaker representing Iwo State Constituency, whose exit is widely viewed as a signal of deeper cracks within the party. Observers believe his departure may have emboldened other aggrieved members to consider leaving.

Another party insider suggested that the lawmakers’ loyalty to the platform has been significantly shaken. “They came into Accord expecting a cohesive structure, but what they met is a party battling itself in court. That is not the kind of environment politicians want to operate in, especially with elections around the corner,” the source alleged.

Political analysts warn that the potential mass exit could significantly weaken the Accord Party’s presence in Osun and disrupt ongoing political calculations in the state. The development is also seen as having possible implications for Governor Ademola Adeleke, amid speculations of political alignments involving the party.

It was gathered that bearing any last minute change, members representing : Olorunda
, Ifelodun, Ifedayo, Ila, Ife South, Ife East, Aiyedire, Olaoluwa, Ayedaade, Ilesa East, Osogbo, Ede South, Orolu/Irepodun, Ife Central and Egbedore could be on their way out of the Accord party.

“The instability within Accord could ripple into broader political dynamics in Osun,” an analyst noted. “If the lawmakers eventually leave, it will diminish the party’s influence and could affect alliances tied to the upcoming election.”

With the court yet to resolve the leadership dispute, uncertainty continues to hang over the party’s future, leaving members and stakeholders in a state of apprehension as the political landscape ahead of 2027 begins to take shape.

What nonsense did you just type?

Accord has them now. If they flee they may lose their seats if there is no leadership crisis at the national level. Na where Fubara take finish himself for APC. He can't leave even if APC decides not to field him.

Every party where there is prominent politicians, internal crises must start from unknown source.

Yet people still singing Hosanna towards a man who is not only destroying economy but democracy.

Indeed, human beings need brutal people as their heads.

Used and dumped by who? Do you even listen to yourself before you type? You sound so disjointed and silly most times.

Who used and dumped him? Even if your paymasters give you a line, at least use your own brain to refine it before pushing it out. I keep assuming you're probably smart but just trying to work for your feeding money but you keep convincing me why it's so easy to even buy you in the first place.

EponObi:
Who go save Governor Ajobiewe bayi? 🤣🤣🤣

LP crisis = Tinubu!

PDP crisis = Tinubu!

SDP crisis = Tinubu!

ADC crisis (about to happen) = Tinubu!

ACCORD PARTY crisis = Tinubu!

Husband and wife katakata = Tinubu!

Everything negative in Nigeria = Tinubu!

With or without your vote, you will be affected by the decisions made by politicians who are allowed into public service from the parties.

“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate, he doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events.

He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics.

The slowpoke doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”
