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...
In what many are calling a calculated act of political vendetta, Sunday Bisi, Osun PDP Chairman, has reportedly lured the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Barr. Dosun Babatunde, into a scheme that misled Governor Ademola Adeleke into seizing the Ido-Oko farmland, a property ancestrally linked to the family of Hon. Wole Oke.
Beyond the land grab, Sunday Bisi’s moves appear deeply rooted in a long-standing resentment toward Ijesa North. His hatred for the region is now monumental.
In a statement by Wole Oke's constituency office, revealed
that, part of the ploy involved installing a non-native as a second-class Oba in the area, an act that blatantly disregards the cultural heritage and traditional ownership of the land.

“This isn’t leadership. It’s distortion of history dressed as reform.”
Meanwhile, in a separate display of political theatre, Sunday Bisi recently celebrated a midday road patch in Ilesa as though it were the rebirth of all Ijesa land. One repaired street at 12pm, and suddenly the people of Obokun and Oriade were expected to kneel in gratitude.
Even more troubling is Bisi’s disregard or ignorance of Wole Oke’s tangible contributions to education and infrastructure. As a key member of the House Committee on TETFund, Hon. Oke facilitated critical funding for the development of Osun State College of Technology (OSCOTECH) in Esa-Oke. But rather than acknowledge that achievement, Sunday Bisi peddles half-baked narratives aimed at rewriting the region’s progress.
For those watching closely, it’s no longer just politics, it’s a coordinated campaign of exclusion, misinformation, and regional suppression.
