Adeleke Travels to U.S. for Davido’s Wedding

Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has traveled to the United States to attend the white wedding of his nephew and international music star, Davido (David Adeleke), taking place in Miami, Florida, this August.

The governor’s trip sparked concern from the opposition party (APC), who questioned his absence from the state for over two weeks without official communication or formal transfer of power to the deputy.

In response, the governor’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, confirmed the trip, stating that Adeleke left via the family’s private jet and is in regular contact with his deputy, Prince Kola Adewusi, who is overseeing state affairs.

Rasheed clarified that the governor hasn’t taken any official vacation since assuming office in November 2022, and assured that this trip would be brief. He also extended an invitation to members of the opposition to join in the celebration, either in person or virtually.

Meanwhile, APC’s spokesperson, Kola Olabisi, criticized the governor’s silence and demanded clarification on who is officially in charge in his absence.
