Osun Governor Adeleke Reconstitutes Campaign Council, Welcomes Ex-APC Leaders

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has approved a significant overhaul of his campaign council, the Imole Campaign Council (TICC), in preparation for the August 15 governorship election. The reconstituted body now notably includes prominent figures who recently switched allegiance from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Accord party in the state.

This strategic integration of former APC leaders into the campaign structure is intended to harness their experience and ensure their active participation in the party's electioneering activities. The announcement, made by the Media and Publicity Committee of the Imole Campaign Council, highlighted the appointment of several individuals to the apex body and various sub-committees.

Key appointments include Alhaji Jamiu Olawumi as Director of Strategic Communications and Dr. Desmond Ojumu to the Medical Committee. Other leaders have been assigned roles in committees focused on strategic communications, mobilization, reconciliation, research, planning, and inter-party relations. The campaign council has also established a new Election Surveillance and Voter Education Committee, chaired by former Commissioner for Youth Hon. Yemi Lawal, to bolster voter mobilization and election monitoring efforts.
