Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has left the Peoples Democratic Party after months of tension within the party’s top ranks.
His exit, which took effect on 4 November 2025, became public after his spokesperson released a statement confirming the move.
The governor’s decision emerged from the deepening leadership crisis in the PDP, a conflict that has split key figures and weakened internal cohesion. The unrest at the national level has created uncertainty for party members preparing for upcoming elections.
The resignation was sent to his ward chairman in Ede North, formally ending Adeleke’s long-standing membership. He expressed gratitude for the roles he held through the party, including senator and governor, but decided the ongoing turmoil made it impossible to remain.
The move has stirred fresh political debates in Osun State as residents and party loyalists try to understand what direction he plans to take next. Many have watched the growing tension within the PDP and expected major changes from prominent members.
Attention has now shifted to Adeleke’s future political home. Although he has not announced his next platform, reports suggest he may join the Accord Party as the 2026 governorship election approaches. The reports remain unconfirmed, but they have gained traction as the PDP continues to struggle.
As the state edges closer to another election cycle, Adeleke’s departure adds a new twist to Osun’s political landscape. Parties are recalibrating while supporters wait for his next move, which could shape alliances and influence the contest ahead.
