Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has demanded the immediate arrest and prosecution of Senator Francis Fadahunsi over an alleged threat to kill members of his party, the Accord Party. The governor's call comes after a viral video surfaced on social media, purportedly showing Fadahunsi making the threat. The video has sparked widespread public outrage and intensified political tensions in the state.
Fadahunsi, who represents Osun East in the Senate, has faced criticism from both the governor and the public. He has been accused of undermining the administration and inciting violence. In a separate statement, Fadahunsi criticized Adeleke, claiming the governor is not fit to continue in office. This exchange has further deepened the political divide in Osun.
The situation has raised concerns about the stability of the state’s political environment ahead of upcoming elections. While no arrests have been made yet, the governor’s appeal to the Inspector-General of Police signals a growing escalation in the conflict. The incident highlights the challenges of maintaining political harmony in the region.
