The Osun State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has debunked rumours of an alleged plan by Governor Ademola Adeleke to decamp to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statement released on Saturday, the Osun PDP asserted that neither Adeleke nor the established structures of the ruling party in the state would be joining the opposition APC.
Speculation about Adeleke and the entire PDP structure decamping to the APC had done the rounds on Friday.
However, Osun PDP chairman Sunday Bisi responded to these rumors, labelling them as “falsehoods” orchestrated by “jittery elements within the opposition.”
He described it as a desperate attempt to distract the people of Osun State from the ongoing transformation led by Governor Adeleke.
Bisi acknowledged the tension and anxiety these rumours had caused among party members, supporters, and stakeholders.
He emphasised that the PDP remained “intact, cohesive, and more committed than ever” to the mission of rescuing and rebuilding Osun State.
“Those spreading the lie of defection are merely rejected politicians and agents of retrogression, who are fearful of Governor Adeleke’s growing popularity and performance.”
Bisi stated that despite ongoing attempts to undermine the progress being made for the people, the PDP administration continued to deliver on campaign promises.
He further assured the people of the state that the PDP administration in Osun, adhering to its open-door policy, was committed to transparency and inclusivity.
“Your voices are heard, your feedback is valued, and your concerns are being addressed with utmost sincerity,” Bisi added.
The chairman urged the citizens of Osun to disregard the mischief of those whose legacy was merely the plundering of state resources.
He reiterated that the Adeleke administration, supported by the PDP, was focused on service delivery, responsive governance, and the uplift of all communities across the state.
“To the people of Osun, your unwavering support, constant engagement, and public displays of affection are deeply appreciated. We remain grateful and even more dedicated to the collective vision for a greater Osun State,” Bisi said.
