The Factional Chairman of the Accord Party, Prof. Chris Imumolen, has stated that the party's leadership crisis will not be resolved through the Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke's victory in the party. Prof. Imumolen, in a press conference in Abuja, emphasized that the leadership dispute within the Accord Party is a national issue that must be settled through the legal process, not the outcome of an election.

He urged all party members, supporters, and stakeholders to remain calm and allow the judicial process to run its course. Prof. Imumolen highlighted that the Federal Capital Territory High Court issued an interim order on August 29, 2024, directing the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognize him as the National Chairman pending the determination of the substantive suit.

He reiterated that the Accord leadership dispute is separate from the Osun election and that the proper place to determine the legitimate leader of the party is through the courts, not political propaganda or an election campaign.
