EXCLUSIVE: Adeleke’s War on Yoruba Heritage – A Timeline of Betrayal (Osun Osogbo 2024, Biafra Mourner 2025/2026, Yoruba Indigene Sacked for Her)

Let us take you back. Because Governor Ademola Adeleke has been quietly waging war on Yoruba culture and political power for years. And Yorubas forgot. We will refresh your memory.

In 2024, Adeleke committed the unthinkable. He took the Osun Osogbo Festival, a 700-year-old Yoruba spiritual heritage, and awarded major contracts to an Igbo-owned firm. The festival involves sacred rites: Iwopopo (Cleansing Parade), Ina Olojumerindinlogun (lighting of the 600-year-old lamp), and sacrifices at the Osun River. These are ancestral duties, not carnival events for outsourcing.

When Yorubas protested, his government hid behind the Ataoja-in-Council. Weak excuse. Everyone knows no contract gets approved without the governor’s stamp. Adeleke signed off on it.

In September 2025, Adeleke appointed Professor Chinwe Obuaku as Director-General and Special Envoy to the Governor on Climate Change and Renewable Energy. But here is the kicker: there are alleged reports that a Yoruba indigene was sacked from that same position or a similar role to make room for her.

Yes. A qualified Yoruba son or daughter lost their job so that an Igbo woman who openly mourns Biafra could take their place. Paid with Yoruba money. Sitting in Yoruba land.

Now in May 2026, Adeleke has confirmed her elevated role, cementing her place in his administration. And what does this woman say publicly? “The loss of Biafra is a trauma for me.”

A woman openly nursing a 50-year-old secessionist wound now holds a Yoruba government job that once belonged to a Yoruba indigene. The same region whose ancestors fought alongside the North to keep Nigeria one. The same region that Biafran propaganda once targeted for destruction.

And Adeleke expects Yorubas to keep quiet?

The Pattern Is Clear

· 2024: Festival contracts to Igbo firms.
· September 2025: Biafra mourner appointed as DG. Yoruba indigene allegedly sacked for her.
· May 2026: Her role confirmed and elevated.

Yoruba sons and daughters sidelined and thrown out of their own jobs. Outsiders rewarded with our heritage, our positions, and our resources.
