DAILY POST reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, declared Adeleke the winner of the Osun governorship election.

He defeated the All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship candidate, Bola Oyebamiji.

Adeleke’s victory has continued to attract reactions from Nigerians and political analysts over the past 24 hours.

Reacting, Lukman said the Osun election had provided a veritable template for opposition parties seeking to remove President Tinubu in 2027.

He noted that the opposition coalition does not lack support from Nigerians but is facing the challenge of fragmentation.

According to him, opposition leaders in Nigeria must unite to remove President Tinubu.

“Nigeria’s opposition does not suffer from a shortage of popular support. Its greatest challenge is fragmentation.

“Nigeria is bigger than any candidate, any ambition and any political party. If opposition leaders genuinely believe that the country requires a different direction in 2027, then they must demonstrate the same courage, restraint and willingness to compromise that has now produced this outcome in Osun,” he stated.
