Ademola Adeleke, the executive Governor of Osun State has countered the deregistration judgement handed down by the Federal High Court in Abuja against five political parties.
Olawale Rasheed, the official spokesperson of the governor stated in an official statement released in Osogbo on Monday. The statement described the judgement as an abuse of court process and a direct violation of a subsisting order of the Court of Appeal.
“It is on record before Honourable Justice Peter Lifu that the record of proceedings of the Court of Appeal of 22nd May, 2026 was put before his Lordship as Exhibit MAC 2.
“I call on Osun people to remain calm and be assured that our rights will be affirmed and our party, the Accord, will be on the ballot on August 15th.
“We will not only be on the ballot, we will win overwhelmingly the forthcoming governorship election. We should remain calm and forge ahead with mobilisation of our people.
“I also want to assure our people that the flag-off of our campaign is holding as scheduled tomorrow. They want to distract us. We are going ahead and we are winning this election. Our lawyers are taking all the necessary steps to right the wrong.
