A major cabinet reshuffle is reportedly in the works in Osun State following an internal performance review of commissioners by Governor Ademola Adeleke and key members of his inner circle. Sources close to the government say the Governor, alongside his elder brother Dr. Deji Adeleke and a prominent associate, Yeye Dupe Sanni, recently concluded a discreet assessment of the cabinet’s loyalty and effectiveness.
The move, insiders claim, is a response to mounting pressure within the administration and an attempt to consolidate control following what some describe as rejection and resistance from the All Progressives Congress (APC). The Governor’s inner circle is said to be pushing for the removal of all current commissioners, with plans to replace them with individuals deemed more loyal and trustworthy.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that new appointees may be required to take an oath of allegiance before assuming office a controversial move critics argue undermines transparency and democratic governance. The plan, according to observers, signals a shift toward a more centralized and family-influenced administration.
Meanwhile, several current commissioners are believed to be increasingly disengaged, with many reportedly awaiting the right moment to exit the administration. Some have expressed concerns over being sidelined in recent decisions, raising questions about internal cohesion and morale within the executive council.
As Osun State anticipates formal announcements from the Governor’s office, political analysts are watching closely to see how the reshuffle may redefine the balance of power within the Adeleke administration and whether competence or loyalty will ultimately shape the new cabinet.
