Adeleke to IGP: Withdraw Police Backing for Sacked Osun Council Chairmen After Court Ruling

  Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has called on the Inspector General of Police (IGP) to direct the Osun State Police Command to immediately cease what he described as support for "sacked" local government chairmen following a Federal High Court judgment delivered in Osogbo on Monday. Addressing journalists during a press briefing on recent political developments in the state, Adeleke said the court's dismissal of an application seeking tenure elongation for the chairmen affirmed that their tenure had legally expired. The governor congratulated what he described as the authentic elected local government chairmen, noting that the judgment aligned with constitutional provisions and reinforced the Supreme Court's position that tenure elongation is unconstitutional. According to Adeleke, the court also ruled that the affected chairmen lacked the legal standing to institute the suit, further weakening their claim to office. "Based on today's judgment, I the...

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...

  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 ...
