Osogbo, Osun state - A Nigerian cleric who goes by the name Baba Confirm JP has made a public prophecy that Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke will retain his seat in the governorship election scheduled for Saturday, August 15, 2026.
Legit.ng reports that the prophet issued his declaration in a recent social media video, saying God revealed to him that Adeleke, who is running on the Accord Party platform, will win the poll despite what he described as political manoeuvres from the presidency.

Baba Confirm JP's prophecy on Adeleke
Speaking directly to the camera, Baba Confirm JP said:
"Adeleke is the divinely-ordained candidate. The prophecy stands. I don't care about all the political gimmicks of President Bola Tinubu, Adeleke would win. If my prophecy does not come to pass, let them take me away and execute me."
The cleric framed his prediction within what he called a proven record of accuracy, pointing specifically to the disputed 2022 Osun governorship election, which Adeleke won before defending his mandate through a legal battle.
He said:
"In 2022 when there were doubts over whether he would win the Osun gubernatorial election, I prophesied his victory. Even when some prophets claimed that he would lose in court during the litigation related to the election, I proclaimed him the victor. Go and watch the videos on my YouTube."
Osun: Baba Confirm JP backs Adeleke’s re-election
Baba Confirm JP was unequivocal in his conclusion, saying no political force could alter the outcome he had foreseen.
He added:
"I only say God's words. No one can displace Adeleke. He will continue as governor."
Legit.ng reports that the August 15 Osun governorship election is expected to be a closely watched contest, with Adeleke seeking a second term as the state's chief executive.
Although 14 candidates were initially on the ballot, barely a week before the election, Adesina Adeyemi-Doro, the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), withdrew from the contest and endorsed the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Bola Oyebamiji. Adeyemi-Doro will still be on the ballot despite his withdrawal.
The contest has increasingly taken the shape of a three-way battle involving incumbent Governor Adeleke of the Accord Party, Oyebamiji of the APC, and Najeem Salaam of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
