Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike has claimed that Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, is part of his political camp, while asserting that Adeleke, along with others, ultimately belongs to President Bola Tinubu. The FCT minister made these statements during an inspection exercise in Abuja following Adeleke's visits to him and Tinubu amid political realignment ahead of the 2027 elections.
Wike predicted that the 2027 presidential election would feature extensive political alliances, with more politicians and groups joining Tinubu's coalition. He also dismissed claims that Adeleke's electoral victory was helped by the African Democratic Congress (ADC), stating that Adeleke had now fully aligned himself with Tinubu.
Wike encouraged Nigerians to expect a larger rainbow coalition supporting the President in the coming weeks. The ADC candidate, Najeem Salaam, came third in the Osun governorship election, with Adeleke receiving 511,067 votes and Oyebamiji receiving 444,815 votes.
