Why I’ll be re-elected as Osun governor, by Adeleke

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke says his administration’s performance and servant-leadership style will secure his re-election in the August 15, 2026, governorship election in the state.

Adeleke stated this while hosting members of the Osun State chapter of the Ansarudeen Society of Nigeria at the Government House in Osogbo, the state capital, on Wednesday, March 11, 2026.

The governor said his administration’s performance in the areas of the economy, education, sports, health, and agriculture, among others, would guarantee his victory.

He said: “When the opposition asked whether I deserve to be re-elected, I told them yes, based on my performance in this first term in office.

“As governor, I remain a man of due process.

“I adhere to procurement regulations in project execution; enforce equitable distribution of infrastructure across the state; and stick to the rule of law in addressing governance issues.

“I have also implemented merit-based pre-election teachers’ recruitment despite financial constraints and ensured the judicious management of state finances through verifiable projects and programmes.

“Am I not deserving to be re-elected?”

Adeleke further stated that he would base his re-election campaign on an upgraded five-point agenda.

The governor noted that the agenda would focus on integrated youth, women and workers’ welfare, and empowerment.

Adeleke added that infrastructure consolidation for citizens’ social and economic well-being, as well as agro-industrial expansion for human development and collective prosperity, would form part of his campaign priorities.

Adeleke said affordable and quality healthcare, improved access to education, and a better secured business environment for job creation would also receive priority attention.

The governor, however, urged the Islamic society to remember him in their prayers for a free and fair election.

Earlier, the secretary of the society in the state, Hafiz Akande, commended Adeleke for what he described as his outstanding performance in governance.

Akande, however, appealed to the governor to assist the society in constructing a new mosque affected by a road dualisation project in the Iwo area of Osun State.
