Details: The Osun State House of Assembly on Friday, July 7, 2023, confirmed the list of 25 commissioner-nominees forwarded to the House for screening and confirmation by Governor Ademola Adeleke.
Announcing the names during the plenary session, Adewale Egbedun, the Assembly Speaker, confirmed the development through a letter he received from Governor Adeleke.
He said the 25 commissioner-nominees include Oladosu Babatunde, Bayo Ogunbamgbe, Sesan Oyedele, Kolapo Alimi, Soji Adeigbe, Moshood Olagunju, George Alabi and Sunday Oroniyi.
Others are Abiodun Ojo, Bashir Salami, Moruf Ayofe, Sola Ogungbile, Bunmi Jenyo, Ayo Awolowo, Wole Bada, Dipo Eluwole, Rasheed Aderibigbe, Moruf Adeleke, Adeyemo Ademola, Olabiyi Odunlade, Jola Akintola, Mayowa Adejorin, Adenike Adeleke, Tola Fasheru and Gani Ola-Oluwa.
Verification: Many Nigerians confused Mrs. Folashade Adenike Adeleke to be one of his daughters named, Adenike Adeleke.
However, sources who spoke with Intel Region clarified that Mrs. Folashade Adenike Adeleke is the daughter of a late business mogul in Osun state, Alhaji Ahmed Omidiran, and not Governor Ademola Adeleke’s daughter.
It was said that Mrs. Adenike in question was married to the Late Isiaka Adeleke, the brother of Governor Ademola Adeleke.
Isiaka Adeleke was the first executive governor of Osun State. He governed between January 1992 – November 1993.
Conclusion: Based on the facts gathered, it is not true that Governor Ademola Adeleke appointed his daughter as commissioner in Osun state.
