The Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly, Hon. Adewale Egbedun, and 24 other serving legislators on Friday defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the Accord Party.
The decision was reached after a meeting held at the Assembly complex on Friday evening.
A senior source disclosed that the lawmakers resolved to align with Governor Ademola Adeleke, who had earlier left the PDP for the Accord Party ahead of his 2026 re-election bid.
One of the lawmakers, who requested anonymity, said the defection had been under consideration since Governor Adeleke joined the party in November, but a final decision was taken following recent developments concerning adjustments to the general election timetable.
Confirming the development, the Speaker’s spokesperson, Mr. Olamide Tiamiyu, said 25 out of the 26 members of the Assembly had joined the Accord Party, adding that further details would be provided in due course.

Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
