Osun State may be on the verge of a sweeping political shake-up as credible insider sources suggest that Governor Ademola Adeleke is preparing for a mass cabinet reshuffle that could unsettle his administration.
According to high-level insiders, the planned overhaul is allegedly being orchestrated in close consultation with key family members, including billionaire businessman Dr. Deji Adeleke and influential matriarch Yeye Dupe Sanni. The aim, sources say, is to cleanse the government of perceived disloyalty and reinforce the administration’s weakening political hold.
All current Commissioners are reportedly under watch, with many facing imminent dismissal. Plans are said to be underway to replace them with individuals regarded as loyal to the Governor’s inner circle. In an unusual twist, it is rumoured that incoming appointees will be required to swear oaths of allegiance, further fuelling speculation about deep mistrust within government ranks.
The atmosphere within the State Executive Council is reportedly tense, with Commissioners scrambling to safeguard their positions. Some have allegedly begun reaching out to influential political figures in hopes of retaining relevance.
An official statement has not yet been issued, but political observers are watching closely. If confirmed, this could mark a dramatic shift in the Adeleke administration and alter the state’s political dynamics in the months ahead.
