The Tanimu Turaki-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has thrown its weight behind Governor Ademola Adeleke of the Accord Party ahead of Saturday’s governorship election in Osun State.
This endorsement comes amid a fractured PDP, with another faction supporting the APC candidate, Bola Oyebamiji.
The Turaki group’s decision is seen as a significant boost for Adeleke, who is seeking re-election against a divided opposition.
The faction’s support is based on what it describes as Adeleke’s developmental strides and inclusive governance.
This development further complicates the political landscape in Osun, as the PDP remains split over who to back in the crucial poll.
The election is expected to be a tight race, with all parties intensifying campaigns in the final hours.
