Former Nigerian President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has lauded Governor Ademola Adeleke for proving his critics wrong by not being a dancing but hard working Governor in the governance affairs of the state.

Adewale Egbedun and members of Osun House of Assembly, Chief Obasanjo said dancing to praise God is noteworthy especially with the reports of good developments happening in Osun state.
He called on the Ooni of Ife and other royal fathers to support the Governor to deliver more urging the Governor to continue to work closely with traditional rulers, elders and stakeholders in the state.
