The Accord Party in Osun State is poised to officially announce Governor Ademola Adeleke as its flagbearer for the 2026 governorship election.
The announcement will be made during the party’s governorship primary taking place today, Wednesday, December 10, 2025.
This was revealed by the Osun state chairman of the party, Pastor Victor Akande, on Wednesday in Osogbo.
Pastor Akande also revealed that the Osun Governor Adeleke is the party’s sole candidate.
He added that about 150 delegates would partake in the primary.
“Governor Ademola Adeleke is our sole candidate for the 2026 governorship election. We are declaring him today. As you know, he formally defected to our party in November and we publicly announced him on Tuesday.
“The delegates are five, drawn from each of the 30 local government areas of the state,” Akande stated.
It was earlier reported that Governor Adeleke had announced the Accord Party as his new political platform.
This comes as he also confirmed his intention to seek re-election in 2026.
Governor Adeleke made the declaration at the Banquet Hall of the Government House in Osogbo in the presence of national and state leaders of the party on Tuesday.
Adeleke stated that he had formally joined the Accord Party on November 6, 2025, after weeks of consultation and deliberations with stakeholders and opinion leaders.
