I will keep dancing despite criticism, it doesn’t affect my performance -says Governor Adeleke

The Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, has vowed to continue dancing, saying it does not in any way interfere with his duties as Governor.

Adeleke is well known for his energetic dancing moves, which have earned him the nickname “the dancing governor”.

His love for dancing has often attracted criticism from political opponents who question his seriousness in office.

Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Wednesday, the governor said:

“It does not impede my work, governance should cover delivery and impact, not dancing.

“I am a human being, I express myself through music and culture, but that does not distract me from my work

“I will keep dancing because I love to praise God, and that doesn’t change anything, so, I will still dance, praise God, and do my work. My dancing habit is a personal matter that doesn’t interfere with governance”.

Governor Adeleke is seeking re-election in 2026 on the platform of the Accord Party after decamping from the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) recently.
