After weeks of political tension and controversy surrounding the August 15 governorship election, the senator representing Osun East senatorial District, Francis Adenigba Fadahunsi, has finally congratulated Governor Ademola Adeleke on his re-election, pledging his support and cooperation for the governor's second term. Fadahunsi, in a congratulatory message dated Friday, September 4, 2026, extended his goodwill to Adeleke on behalf of himself, his political family, associates, and the people of Osun East senatorial district. The development comes against the backdrop of the intense political atmosphere that preceded the election, during which the senator was embroiled in controversy over remarks attributed to him about members and supporters of the Accord Party. Political opponents had accused Fadahunsi of threatening violence against Accord members; he, however, publicly denied the allegation and rejected the interpretation.
