The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State has accused Governor Ademola Adeleke of focusing government attention and resources primarily on his hometown of Ede, while allegedly neglecting other parts of the state.

In a statement released on Wednesday, APC leaders claimed that certain developmental projects and government initiatives are disproportionately concentrated in Ede, raising concerns about equitable governance across Osun State.

However, analysts and independent observers caution that these claims are political allegations, as there is currently no independent verification or data confirming that other regions of the state are being deliberately overlooked.

APC’s criticism comes amid ongoing political rivalry and is part of broader opposition scrutiny of Adeleke’s administration.
Governor Adeleke’s office has not formally responded to these specific allegations, though his administration has previously highlighted statewide projects in sectors such as health, education, and infrastructure.
Political analysts note that statements from opposition parties often reflect partisan perspectives, especially during election cycles, and should be interpreted carefully.

The debate underscores the need for transparent reporting on government initiatives and equitable development across all local government areas in Osun.
