Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has formally announced his resignation from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), citing what he described as an unresolved leadership crisis rocking the party at the national level.
In a statement released on his verified X (formerly Twitter) page on Monday, Governor Adeleke disclosed that he tendered his resignation letter on November 4, 2025, to the PDP leadership in Sagba Abogunde, Ward 2, Ede North Local Government Area.
According to him, the decision became necessary following “the current crisis within the leadership of the People’s Democratic Party at the national level,” which he said has affected the party’s stability and direction.
Governor Adeleke expressed appreciation to PDP members and supporters, acknowledging the platform on which he was elected first as a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and later as Governor of Osun State.
“I thank the party and its numerous members and supporters for the opportunities given to me to use the platform for my elections as first a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and now as Governor of Osun State,” he wrote.
His resignation marks a major political development in Osun State and adds a new layer to the ongoing turbulence within the PDP nationally.
