Back Adeleke now, Dele Momodu tells Osun opposition

Dele Momodu, a prominent figure in Osun politics and publisher of Ovation Magazine, has called for unity among opposition parties in the state ahead of the upcoming August 16 governorship election. In a statement shared on X, Momodu urged the various opposition parties to put aside their individual ambitions and support Governor Ademola Adeleke of the Accord Party.

Momodu, who recently joined the Accord Party, argued that united opposition is necessary to prevent the All Progressives Congress (APC) from exploiting divisions among the opposition to rig the election. He emphasized that the political atmosphere in Osun is such that opposition parties must immediately align and back Adeleke, as a divided opposition could give the APC an advantage.
