Ogun Guber: Accord affirms Adeleke as candidate, says APC behind parallel primary
The National Treasurer of Accord Party, Chief Abdulazeez Oyeniyi Salaudeen, has declared that the party held a lawful primary election in Osun State on December 10, 2025.
He explained that the primary was conducted in compliance with the Electoral Act, 2022, and under the supervision of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, with Governor Ademola Adeleke as the sole aspirant for the governorship seat.
The national treasurer, who stated this at a press briefing in Minna, disclosed that the party conducted a full election with 150 accredited delegates, with Adeleke securing 145 valid votes, while five ballots were voided due to incorrect thumb printing.
He noted that the process was transparent, with INEC, the media, observers and security agents in attendance.
Salaudeen, who chaired the Electoral Committee, declared Adeleke the winner.
We are reiterating that we don’t know these people and we believe that they are being sponsored by All Progressives Congress (APC) party members in Osun State to cause confusion and to destabilize the party (Accord) for the people of Osun State.
“Accord (Party) in the North Central Zone, held their meeting last Saturday, 14th December 2025, and we affirmed and gave a vote of confidence on the leadership of the party,” he said.
