ADC Congratulates Adeleke on Osun Governorship Election Victory

The party said Adeleke won despite intimidation and heavy APC resources, and it demanded an explanation for a nearly four-hour INEC result-upload suspension.

  • On Monday, Anambra State Governor Professor Chukwuma Charles Soludo congratulated Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke on his re-election to a second four-year term following Saturday's polls.
  • The African Democratic Congress also congratulated Adeleke, describing the result as a victory for democracy achieved despite intimidation and heavy use of government resources by the ruling All Progressives Congress .
  • Despite mobilization of more than 30 state governors to support the APC, the ADC claimed voters successfully resisted pressure at the ballot box and chose their preferred candidate.
  • Alleging an attempt to manipulate the process, the ADC demanded a full explanation from the Independent National Electoral Commission regarding a four-hour suspension of result uploads on the INEC Result Viewing Portal last Saturday.
  • Governor Soludo urged political actors to embrace peace for collective progress, while the ADC warned that the election incident must be addressed to prevent similar issues during the 2027 general elections.
