Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has stated that Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, is still struggling with the aftermath of his loss in the 2022 Osun State governorship election. This assertion comes from Adeleke, who spoke at the Arise TV Town Hall on the gubernatorial poll. Oyetola had previously told Adeleke to anticipate defeat in the upcoming August 15, 2026, election, despite pledging his support for President Bola Tinubu.
Adeleke responded by accusing Oyetola of enduring the pain of defeat, suggesting that he has resorted to using President Tinubu's name to justify the killing of his opponents. He further alleged that Oyetola had arrested members of the Accord party, releasing only a few after intervention from Bishop Matthew Kukah. One of their candidates remains imprisoned in Abuja, for which Adeleke questioned the reasons.
He emphasized the readiness of the Osun people and highlighted his past accomplishments, declaring his intention to win the upcoming election on Saturday.
