Osun APC accuses Adeleke of political anxiety over alleged opposition blueprint

By Deborah Oladejo, Osogbo –

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed Governor Ademola Adeleke’s criticism of an alleged economic blueprint linked to its governorship candidate, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, saying it was born out of envy and fear of losing the August 8, 2026 governorship election.

Adeleke had criticised the economic blueprint allegedly released by Oyebamiji, describing it as outdated and detrimental to Osun State’s development.

However, the APC, in a statement issued by its Director of Media and Information, Kola Olabisi, said no economic blueprint had been officially released by Oyebamiji, stressing that the document referenced by the governor exists only in his imagination.

He added that when the APC candidate eventually presents an economic agenda, it will be done openly and explained directly to the people of the state.

The APC maintained that Oyebamiji possesses the requisite experience and exposure to articulate an economic roadmap capable of addressing what it described as policy failures under the current administration.

According to the APC, the present government lacks a coherent economic direction, alleging that Adeleke’s administration has failed to impact the state positively, running it instead by impulse.

“The statement from the incumbent Governor Adeleke depicting that AMBO has come up with his economic blueprint is another official gaffe by the perennially befuddled Osun State governor. We implore the good people of the state to discountenance it, as it is fit for the dustbin of history. We want to make it abundantly clear that when the time is ripe for AMBO to present his economic blueprint, it will not be done under the table; it will be made public,” Olabisi said.

The governor, in a statement by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, said a review of the document showed that it sought to reverse ongoing economic reforms and argued that the APC candidate’s ideas conflicted with modern economic realities and progressive governance.
