“APC Is Jealous Because They Can’t Dance” — Adeleke Fires Back Ahead of Osun Election
Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has responded to criticism over his well-known dancing style, suggesting that some members of the opposition are simply jealous because they cannot dance like him.
The governor made the remark amid political activities ahead of the 2026 Osun governorship election, where he is seeking another term in office.
Adeleke has repeatedly attracted public attention for dancing at political events and public functions, a habit that has also become a notable part of his public image.
Responding to criticism from opposition figures, the governor reportedly dismissed the attacks as jealousy, saying his critics are unhappy because they lack his dancing ability.
His comments have generated reactions online, with supporters praising his confidence and others continuing to debate whether his public dancing enhances or distracts from his political image.
The 2026 Osun governorship election is scheduled for August, with Adeleke facing opposition from candidates including the All Progressives Congress (APC)’s Bola Oyebamiji.
The governor’s dancing has become a recurring feature of political conversations surrounding him, with both supporters and critics using it to shape different narratives about his personality and leadership style.
