The Presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, Omoyele Sowore, has attacked Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke over his visit to President Bola Tinubu, alleging that nearly 50 Osun residents have died in election-related violence.
Sowore made the allegation in a post on his official X handle on Thursday, August 20, 2026, while reacting to photographs of Adeleke meeting with Tinubu.
He described Adeleke’s visit as a political agreement between the governor and the President, saying the understanding between them had now been sealed.
“Governor Ademola Adeleke, the man who has his brains beneath his feet, has now gone to visit his preferred presidential candidate, failed Nigerian President, Bola Tinubu,” Sowore wrote.
Sowore then turned his attention to the violence surrounding the Osun election, claiming that nearly 50 residents had died in election-related incidents.
“Meanwhile, nearly 50 Osun citizens have been killed in election-related violence, including another person killed yesterday, sacrificed to his spoilt brat cousin, Davido, near the palace of the Ataoja of Osogbo,” he alleged.
The AAC chieftain also criticised Adeleke over his political relationship with Tinubu, linking the governor’s meeting with the President to the ongoing political developments ahead of the 2027 election.
