Osun 2026: Oke-Fia flyover has structural defects — APC allege

…as Adeleke refutes allegations

The Chairman of the Media and Publicity Committee for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Osun 2026 Governorship Campaign Council, Engr. Remi Omowaiye, has alleged that the ₦10 billion Oke-Fia flyover project has structural defects.

Addressing journalists in Osogbo on Monday, Omowaiye challenged Governor Ademola Adeleke to disclose the names of the contractors handling infrastructure projects across the state.

“I can confirm to you that the Oke-Fia flyover has structural defects. Governor Adeleke should mention the contractors handling his projects,” he stated.

The former Commissioner for Works further alleged that the incumbent administration has mismanaged the state’s resources, claiming that Osun is in the doldrums due to poor financial oversight.

During the briefing, Omowaiye outlined the plans of the APC candidate, Oyebamiji (popularly known as AMBO), to transform the state and promote good governance.

He noted that the candidate intends to industrialize Osun and revitalize its economy through the implementation of the Electricity Act and the improvement of agriculture.

He further stated that Oyebamiji would partner with relevant security agencies to tackle insecurity.

Clarifying that the campaign team would avoid propaganda in its quest for votes ahead of the August 15 governorship election, Omowaiye vowed that the council would embrace issue-based campaigning.

In her remarks, the committee’s co-chair, Funke Egbemode, criticized the administration’s focus, stating, “Any governor whose only priority is roads and flyovers should go home and be with his wife.”

Corroborating Omowaiye’s concerns, the former Commissioner added, “There are no public schools in Osun where there is a complete set of science teachers,” before declaring that Governor Adeleke would be voted out on August 15.”

In response, Olawale Rasheed, the spokesperson for Governor Ademola Adeleke, dismissed the allegations of financial mismanagement.

He cited several locally and nationally recognized projects and programs as evidence that state funds have been judiciously expended.
