He Knows He Can’t Win Again” – APC Mocks Adeleke Over Alleged Defection Moves

Published

on

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has alleged that Governor Ademola Adeleke is making desperate moves to defect to the party, but insisted that such a move would damage its reputation.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a statement issued on Wednesday in Osogbo by its chairman, Tajudeen Lawal, the APC dismissed Adeleke as a political liability whose entry would erode the party’s integrity rather than strengthen it.

Lawal’s reaction followed a communiqué released by the Osun Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Leadership Caucus—signed by Governor Adeleke and 27 other PDP chieftains—which lamented the resistance to Adeleke’s speculated defection bid.

According to Lawal, the governor’s alleged interest in crossing over to the APC is driven by fear of an impending defeat in the 2026 governorship election.

He said:

“The people of Osun know that it is the fear of an imminent 2026 election defeat that is pushing Governor Adeleke to desperately seek asylum in our party for his political survival. We are pleased with the firm resistance his overtures have met.”

Lawal further described the Osun PDP as “a leprous house” abandoned by credible politicians, alleging that the party has been reduced to a spoil of war under the Adeleke dynasty.

“Since 2023, when the PDP began to morally collapse and turned into a war loot for the Adeleke family, principled leaders with integrity have continued to leave the party in droves, crossing over to the APC and leaving behind only political dregs and a structureless carcass,” he said.

He dismissed the PDP caucus’ claim of being the most popular party in Osun as “empty self-consolation,” arguing that the party has no factual basis for such a boast.

While stressing that the APC remains open to all Nigerians, Lawal cautioned that not every entry serves the party’s interest:

“Yes, a political party is a free-exit, free-entry platform, but when someone’s entry is likely to stain the party’s image and create a public perception crisis, the party is well within its right to reject such entry—as we have done in Governor Adeleke’s case.”

Lawal accused Adeleke of seeking refuge in the APC to escape voter backlash after allegedly mismanaging close to ₦1 trillion within 30 months in office:

“Those who know the truth understand that Adeleke is simply running from the anger of Osun people after his poor stewardship, and he wants to use the APC as a shield ahead of 2026. We will not allow that.”

‘Kwankwaso Is More Experienced Than Peter Obi’ – Buhari’s Ex-Aide Declares.

Ahmad made the assertion in a post on his X handle, maintaining that Kwankwaso’s decision to accept the position of running mate should be seen as an act of political modesty rather than an indication that he is less qualified than Obi.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

According to the former presidential aide, the relationship between the two politicians should be viewed as one of equals rather than that of a superior and a subordinate.

“To be entirely candid, the political dynamic between Rabiu Kwankwaso and Peter Obi ought to be characterised as one of collegiality between peers, rather than a hierarchy of principal and subordinate,” he wrote.

He added, “The choice to assume a deputy role beneath Obi ought to be interpreted as a testament to political modesty.”

Making a case for Kwankwaso’s political experience, Ahmad recalled that the former Kano State governor served as Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives before Obi became a prominent figure in national politics.

He also noted that Kwankwaso governed Kano State, which he described as Nigeria’s most populous and politically influential state, for two terms and served as a federal minister.

“If we are assessing political experience, Sen. Kwankwaso probably has a longer and more impressive political background than Peter Obi,” Ahmad stated.

In contrast, the former presidential aide argued that Obi’s major public office experience was limited to his tenure as governor of Anambra State.

“Unlike other candidates, Peter Obi was just a former governor of Anambra State,” he wrote.
