Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has officially joined the Accord Party, following his resignation from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
In a letter addressed to the PDP Ward 2 Chairman, Sagba Abogunde, in Ede North Local Government Area, Adeleke formally withdrew from the party on November 4, 2025, citing ongoing crises within the national leadership as his reason for leaving.
“Due to the current crisis within the national leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), I hereby resign my membership with immediate effect,” the governor wrote.
Adeleke, who rose to prominence through the PDP, expressed gratitude for the party’s role in his political career, including his elections as Senator representing Osun West and as Governor of Osun State.
He unveiled his new political platform as the Accord Party in an announcement Tuesday evening, confirming earlier reports of his expected defection.
