Adeleke withdraws EFCC suit, says Tinubu intervention settled matter

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has withdrawn a suit against the EFCC over frozen accounts, citing President Tinubu's intervention as the reason for the settlement, according to Punch.

Adeleke's campaign council has denied any political agreement behind the governor's support for President Bola Tinubu's re-election bid, as reported by Daily Post Nigeria and Punch Nigeria. The council's spokesperson, Pelumi Olajengbesi, stated that Adeleke's support for Tinubu was based on the President's performance and reforms.

This denial was in response to comments by Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, who congratulated Adeleke on his re-election and said "agreement is agreement".
