Sowore: Adeleke’s Family Running Osun Government

“What I know behind the scenes is… I heard that Adeleke’s sister is the one running the state. And his elder brother, who is Davido’s father, also. So it’s a family, pretty much, running the state,” Sowore alleged.

The 2027 presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, Omoyele Sowore, has alleged that Governor Ademola Adeleke is not in control of the Osun State government.

Sowore claimed that the governor’s sister and elder brother, Adedeji Adeleke, father of music star Davido, were allegedly controlling the affairs of the state.

He made the allegation on Thursday while featuring on News Central TV’s breakfast programme.

The AAC candidate also dismissed some of the reported achievements of the Adeleke administration, questioning the governor’s leadership and performance.

“What I saw in Adeleke’s leadership is that the guy is not even in control of his government.

“What I know behind the scenes is… I heard that Adeleke’s sister is the one running the state. And his elder brother, who is Davido’s father, also. So it’s a family, pretty much, running the state,” Sowore alleged.

He said he was “appalled” by the governor’s performance after watching his appearance on an Arise TV town hall programme.

Sowore’s claims were presented as allegations and were not independently substantiated in the remarks.
