Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke Resigns from PDP

With less than 24 hours to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship primary election in Osun State, Governor Ademola Adeleke has formally resigned his membership of the party.

Osun PDP Chairman, Sunday Bisi, had announced on Monday that the primary scheduled for Tuesday would no longer hold due to the deepening factional crisis within the party. He added that Governor Adeleke had withdrawn from seeking the party’s nomination as a result of the internal disagreements.

However, a separate letter from the PDP National Secretariat insisted that the primary would proceed as planned on Tuesday at the Atlantic Multipurpose Hall in Osogbo.


Amid the conflicting positions, a letter dated November 4, 2025, and circulated on Monday evening, confirmed Governor Adeleke’s resignation from the PDP.

According to the letter, titled: “Resignation of my membership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Adeleke wrote:

“Due to the current crisis of the national leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), I hereby resign my Membership of the People’s Democratic Party with immediate effect.

“I thank the People’s Democratic Party for the opportunities given to me for my elections as a Senator (Represented Osun West) and as Governor of Osun State under the People’s Democratic Party.”
