..Says Osun won’t tolerate rigging

President Tinubu, I'm the Chief Security Officer of Osun State, and I'm passing this message to you. Osun will not accept any rigging. If anybody tries to do otherwise, the political crisis of 1983, when some people tried to rig Michael Ajasin out of power in Ondo State, may… pic.twitter.com/XPaX2vX1i4

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has warned President Bola Tinubu not to allow rigging the August 15 governorship election in the State or risk political violence as witnessed in 1983.

The Governor, who was addressing party supporters at Orita-Sabo in Olorunda local government area of Osun State on Monday, also said the President must wake up to his responsibility of protecting the people from police harassment.

According to him, the President is watching without concern, the political crisis in Osun being perpetrated by his party chieftains despite the fact that Accord has endorsed him as the 2027 Presidential candidate.

“Mr President, I want you to take note of my words, I m the Chief Security officer of Osun, you are a Yoruba man and Osun is Yorubaland, yet, your party chieftains are perpetrating political violence while you look the other way.

“Mr President, all e demand for is a free and fair election, if anybody try to do otherwise, the political crisis of 1983, when some people tried to rig Michael Ajasin in Ondo State out of power, may repeat itself again.

“Mr President call your people to order, call police chiefs to order, I am the governor here not any other person. Accord has already endorsed you as it candidate, why are suffering again.

“You fought for democracy in Nigeria and you must not allow your people destroy it. Wake up to your responsibility Mr President, stop the shenanigans going on in Osun”, he warned.

Earlier, the Imole Campaign Council Director-General, Senator Lere Oyewumi tasked the people to troop out en masse to cast their votes for the party as the only way to return Adeleke to office again.

He said the good work of the governor is enough to warrant the people to vote for him again, calling on the electorates to votes and protect their vote on election day.

Mr. Governor, your animalistic bravado and botanical audacity are both alarming and deafening. It is troubling that you would threaten the President merely because he did not permit you to continue trampling on the blood of Osun citizens in pursuit of your second-term ambition. That approach is dead on arrival.

Na wa ooo. Adeleke has sees signs of defeat. He's a goner

When you won it wasn't rigged...

With all fairness, AMBO has convinced electorate to get more votes against the incumbent Governor.

Over 55% voters have decided to vote against Osun ruling party because of poor performance in all sectors.

Adeleke's defeat is imminent. He's a goner.

What happened in 1983 did not happened in 2022, this time around 2026, it will not happen. All this lamentation and message of sympathy all the time is not politically, you wọn in hard way in 2022 and in hard way you will leave. That is the bitter truth. But you are free to come to the poll and prove otherwise.

Anytime Governor Jackson speaks, he makes outbursts that affect his re-election bid.
In June, he made an outburst by rubbishing the great Awolowo, saying, Awolowo were wo?

Last month, during an interview, he described the ancient city of Iwo as a village, saying that the paramount ruler walks every day on the road he constructed.

Today, he warned Mr. President, another of his careless outburst that was reported by several reputable media platforms and newspapers as a threat to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The people around him should do him a favour by keeping him away from public speaking.

Adeleke didn't endose President Tinubu in the first place, he was using the President to chase media clout but when he sees that the President is focused on governance, he is now blackmailing and threatening the same Tinubu he falsely endorsed. By August 15th, Adeleke is going back to Ede

2022 Osun State Election Results

PDP/Adeleke —403,371 votes

APC— 375,027 votes

Difference. 25k+ votes

Why will Adeleke lose the 2026 election woefully?

1. Adeleke’s political bigwigs have left for the APC

2. Accord Party doesn’t have a solid political structure

3. The Substandard road projects

4. Nepotism and Ede agenda

5. He’s no more popular, no public sympathy like 2022

6. Not competent and couldn’t secure an investor for the state.

and so on….

APC margin will be wide on August 15th. Osun people have rejected Adeleke. Adeleke's defeat is imminent, he's a goner.

Dude... At this point, you need psychiatric help.

Adeleke's supporters have joined APC, why then do you need the police to harass accord leaders? Are those not signs of desperation? Let Oyebamiji walk without security on the streets of any osun town, even his own town, I want to check something. I dare him. Let's see how much they really love him. You think people have forgotten that he's one of the architects of half salary? You think that anger has gone? The arrogance of fielding him in the first place is APC's undoing.

Adeleke has been unleashing violence on the opposition APC members in the last few months. A squad of very deadly thugs live inside the government house. Even recently, his SSG was arrested with huge amount of money and voters register. I’m aware they’ve started vote buying in advance.

But someone, the same Adeleke is the one calling calling for free and fair election and threatening the president. Quite ironic. Pray tell, what’s a free and fair election to the governor? The FG should simply allow him to rig himself back to office without restrain?

Una sabi talk nonsense sha. Is Makinde seeking reelection as governor? Did tinubu lose in Oyo state in 2023? Is tinubu from Oyo state?

The way some of you contribute to political discussions, it's better to just keep quiet. Adeleke can withdraw his support today and he'll still win in osun, that's how much love he has from the people. Nairaland has been bought by APC, reason they keep pushing these false narratives to frontpage constantly.
