Prof. Joshua Olalekan Ogunwole, Vice-Chancellor of Federal University, Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE), is reported to have declared Ademola Adeleke winner of the Osun governorship election. Both outlets describe him as making the declaration following the election process associated with OsunDecides 2026.
Legit.ng and The Punch both link the declaration to Adeleke’s reported vote total, stating he wins with 511,067 votes and is therefore returned as governor. The articles focus on identifying Ogunwole and his role in the declaration, rather than providing extended details on the broader electoral process.
Across the two sources, the emphasis is on the same core point: the FUOYE vice-chancellor’s announcement and Adeleke’s outcome tied to the stated vote count. Neither source’s excerpt foregrounds major disputes or alternative claims within this specific description, and both present the declaration as an accomplished result after the August 15 election.
