Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has threatened to sue the state chapter of the All Progressive Congress (APC) spokesperson, Kola Olabisi, for #5bn as damages over an allegedly defamatory statement.
The APC director was reported to have accused the governor of complicity in a viral recording by a supposed PDP chieftain who issued an alleged threat to bomb the state electoral commission and kill top officials of the commission.

The APC spokesperson had called for the investigation and prosecution of leading PDP leaders, including Governor Adeleke, for allegedly directing the issuance of the recording by the unnamed PDP chieftain.
In a statement by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, the governor described the APC director’s defamatory allegations as irresponsible and asked him to retract them or face legal action.

His words: “The allegation is reprehensible, baseless and defamatory. Mr Governor has ordered his lawyers to review the situation and demand retraction as the Governor did not and has not in any way planned or plotted any attack on either INEC or any electoral official.

“Upon failure to retract the offensive publication, the state director faces a potential libel suit with a demand for five billion naira damages. This deliberate falsehood will have consequences”.

Rasheed said that since the Edo election, many operatives of Osun APC have been boasting across media platforms to violently rig the 2026 governorship elections.
