His move comes barely two weeks after Governor Adeleke adopted the Accord Party as his new political platform ahead of the 2026 Osun governorship election.
The governor formally announced his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the Accord Party on December 9, 2025, at the Banquet Hall of the Government House in Osogbo, in the presence of national and state party leaders.
Explaining his decision at the time, Adeleke cited the leadership crisis at the national level of the PDP, saying he had joined the Accord Party on November 6 after consultations with stakeholders and opinion leaders to pursue his re-election bid.
Davido had earlier reacted to his uncle’s resignation by reposting the announcement on social media with the caption “Jeje…”.
