 OrionTimes Political Desk |May 30, 2026 For Accord Party, the road to victory just became steeper as Oluwole Oke's primary win reaffirms his status as one of Osun's most formidable electoral forces. Hon. Oluwole Oke's victory in the party primary has once again reaffirmed his standing as one of the most influential political figures in Osun State. More than securing a ticket for another electoral contest, the outcome has sent a strong message across the political landscape: Oke remains a formidable force whose influence extends beyond his constituency and whose political relevance continues to shape conversations ahead of the 2027 general elections. A Political Brand Built Over Time In politics, longevity without relevance means little. However, Hon. Oluwole Oke has managed to combine both. Having served multiple terms in the House of Representatives, he has established a reputation rooted in constituency engagement, grassroots mobilization, and legislative experience. His...

"A Tattered Road and a Tattered Truth": Youth Alliance Slams Osun Commissioner for Peddling False Claims







The Esa Odo Youth Alliance has fiercely criticized Hon. Mayowa Adejorin, the Osun State Commissioner for Environment and Sanitation, accusing him of spreading “deliberate falsehood” regarding infrastructural development in the community.


During a recent interview on Rave FM, Hon. Adejorin boldly declared that the road in Esa Odo had been tarred under Governor Ademola Adeleke’s administration, a claim the Youth Alliance did not hesitate to label “a blatant lie.” According to the group, the commissioner’s statement is not only misleading but also a calculated attempt to whitewash the failures of the current government.


“The road he claimed has been tarred is nothing but a dusty, pothole-ridden stretch of neglect,” the group said in a strongly worded statement. “What Hon. Adejorin described is a phantom project. The people of Esa Odo live with the reality daily, and no amount of radio spin can change that.”


Calling the interview “a show of shame,” the Youth Alliance said the commissioner had insulted the intelligence of the very people he swore to serve. They stressed that this kind of misinformation damages public trust and exposes a troubling culture of political deceit.


“Instead of championing real progress, Adejorin has chosen to mislead, to pretend, and to gaslight his own people,” the group added. “It’s not just disappointing, it’s disgraceful.”


They further accused the commissioner of betraying his constituency, prioritizing propaganda over tangible impact. “We expected representation, not misrepresentation,” the group declared.

In a direct appeal to Governor Ademola Adeleke, the Alliance urged the state government to rein in its officials and put an end to what they termed “media theatrics.” They called for visible, measurable development instead of “press statement governance.”

“The people of Esa Odo deserve roads they can walk and drive on, not radio drama and imaginary asphalt,” the statement concluded. “We will not be silent while the truth is buried under political mud.”

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
