You’ve Limited Knowledge Of Osun LG Imbroglio, APC Knocks Controversial Civil Society GroupYou’ve Limited Knowledge Of Osun LG Imbroglio, APC Knocks Controversial Civil Society Group

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused a faceless group operating under the nomenclature of the Network of Civil Society with one Comrade Olarewaju Stephen as its convener of not being alive to the true situation of events in the local government administration in the state.

The non-existing group which hurriedly addressed a press conference in Osogbo, the Osun State capital today, proved beyond reasonable doubt that it was hired to do a hatchet job for the state government whose governor is taking political refuge in the admixture of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP and the ACCORD Party after he was outrightly rejected from defecting to the APC.

In the first place, it is a gross misinformation for the cash-and-carry emergency civil society group to have accused the Court of Appeal reinstated APC chairmen and councillors via its judgement of the 10th of February, 2025 which was not appealed against, of being illegal occupants of the local government council secretariats.
Again, if the so-called convener of the faceless Network of Civil Society Group has not been living in the moon and have been following the legal fireworks on the local government imbroglio in Osun State, it wouldn’t have been difficult for him to know that there was nothing like tenure elongation suit filed by the legally elected and court reinstated APC chairmen and councillors.

The suit that is subsisting at the Federal High Court, Osogbo,is for the determination of the three-year tenure of the reinstated chairmen and councillors and to also determine if a legally-recognised and credible election can be held during the pendency of the tenure of the APC council executives.

It is also a misinformation dressed in the garb of freedom of expression the unfounded accusation of the commercialised civil society group that the reinstated APC chairmen and councillors re-invaded the local government secretariats with the aid of the police on the 5th of January, 2026 as the council executives who have been lawfully occupying their offices merely returned to their places of work.

The police were performing their lawful duty as they wouldn’t want the repeat of the avoidable killing of one of the reinstated chairmen, Hon Remi Abass, Irewole Local Government Council Area of the state, who was gruesomely murdered by the PDP thugs right inside the local government council secretariat sometimes last year.

The accusation of the busy body civil society group that the returnee council workers were subjected to molestation, dehumanisation and harassment is a mere conjecture which was fabricated to misinform the already informed citizenry.

The threat of the group to create anarchy in the state is not only misplaced but highly criminal and reprehensible which has signposted the possible suspects to be held responsible should there be a breakdown of law and order in the state in any foreseeable future.

The court should be a venue to settle any score in any society where the rule of laws prevail and not the rule of the jungle as contained in the threat of the pliable civil society group which is threatening fire and brimstone over nothing.

Osun LG Crisis: How PDP played into the hands of APC (Part 3)

By Ismail Omipidan  This particularly piece, is deliberately not going to be a long one. It is a follow-up to the part One and Two that I shared last year. This very intervention is necessited by my appearance as a Public Affairs Analyst on News Central TV last night , where i discussed the same subject matter. It also forms part of my continued effort to contribute meaningfully to political discourse by promoting accurate information and countering the spread of unverified claims, half-truths, and propaganda. For clarity, I have presented my submissions in bullet points, titled “15 Points to Know on the Osun Local Government Crisis.” Here are the points:  1. Governor Ademola Adeleke lied when he claimed he did not sack the council chairmen and councillors he met when he assumed office.   2. On the 28th of November,  2022, barely 24 hours after his swearing-in, his CPS, Mr. Olawale Rasheed, issued a statement directing the most senior career heads ac...

_30th January,2026_ Osun Local Government Workers are allegedly asking who will help prevail on Ademola Adeleke administration on behalf of some selectively victimized local government officials, especially at this time that the administration is behaving like a mad bull in a china shop?  According to reports,virtually all Local Government officials who they perceived as not heeding their wicked calls not to support the All Progressive Congress (APC) political officials currently in charge of at the local government are being punished with suspension from work using dubious charges. In the civil service, it is a common occurrence for employees who err to be formally queried, suspended, or terminated by their employers following rigorous disciplinary proceedings. What may be deemed unusual under civil service rules and regulations is the suspension of local government staff on dubious grounds. It is noteworthy that Osun Local Government staff were suspended by the Local ...
