Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as political parties begin preparations for the 2026 governorship primaries.

Adeleke’s resignation was conveyed in a letter dated November 4, 2025, and addressed to the chairman of Ward 2, Sagba Abogunde, Ede, Osun State.
