Adeleke visits Wike after meeting with Tinubu

On Thursday, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke visited the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, in Abuja. The meeting occurred after Adeleke's recent re-election and a closed-door session with President Bola Tinubu at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa. A photograph from the visit shows Adeleke shaking hands with Wike while holding the governor's certificate of return.

Adeleke, representing the Accord Party, secured 511,067 votes in the August 15 governorship election, defeating the APC candidate Bola Oyebamiji. During his time with Tinubu, Adeleke expressed gratitude for the peaceful electoral process and praised the President for allowing free and fair elections.
