Osun Governor Adeleke Reconstitutes Campaign Council to Include APC Defectors

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has approved the reconstitution of The Imole Campaign Council (TICC) to strategically incorporate key leaders from the All Progressives Congress (APC) who recently switched allegiance to the Accord party. This move is designed to ensure these defectors play a significant role in the upcoming August 15th governorship election campaign and contribute to the Accord's victory.

The statement, issued by the Media and Publicity Committee of TICC and signed by its Chairman, Rep. Bamidele Salam, detailed the inclusion of several prominent APC figures into the campaign council's apex body. Among those joining are Hon. Folorunsho Bamisayemi, Hon. Ismaila Kolawole, Dr. Tunde Alarape, and others, bringing their experience to the forefront.

Beyond the leadership additions, other party leaders have been assigned to various crucial roles within the campaign structure. Alhaji Jamiu Olawumi is appointed Director of Strategic Communications, while Dr. Desmond Ojumu will serve on the Medical Committee. Several individuals have been named members of the Contact and Mobilisation Committee, reflecting a broad base of support and engagement.

A new committee, the Election Surveillance and Voter Education Committee, has also been established. This committee will be chaired by the former Commissioner for Youth in the state, Hon. Yemi Lawal. The Director-General of the Imole Campaign Council, Akogun Senator Lere Oyewumi, congratulated the new members, expressing confidence in their experience to drive the party's success in the forthcoming election.
