Adeleke, who joined the Accord Party in December 2025 and secured its governorship ticket, said his exit from the PDP followed political realities and what he described as spiritual guidance during a period of internal crisis in his former party.


The governor maintained that the new platform offers a clear path to re-election.


At the same gathering, six federal lawmakers elected on the PDP platform confirmed their defection.

Speaking for the group, Clement Akanni said, “On behalf of Mahruf Adewale representing Osogbo Federal Constituency, Bamidele Salam, Ede Federal Constituency, Soji Adetunji Ikirun Federal Constituency, Mudashiru Lukman Alani, Iwo Federal Constituency, Lanre Oladebo Irewole Isokan Federal Constituency, all of us from today have moved to the Accord Party.”

After voting, with our projections, 80% votes will go to Adeleke, while the other party will get 20%. We will win and all of us will be alive to witness it.”
