Governor Ademola Adeleke

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke has nominated two of former Governor Rauf Aregbesola’s ex-aides as commissioners.

The duo appointed by Adeleke are Kolapo Alimi, who was Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, and Biyi Odunlade, who was Special Adviser and Commissioner for Sports during Aregbesola’s tenure.

The appointments of the ex-aides lend credence to the fact that Aregbesola’s camp backed Adeleke during the last governorship election in Osun.
