An Osun State House of Assembly member, Kanmi Ajibola, has given Senator Francis Fadahunsi 30 days to resign from the National Assembly over alleged inciting comments concerning members of the Accord in the state.
Ajibola, who represents Oriade State Constituency in the Assembly, also threatened legal action against Fadahunsi if the senator failed to comply with the demand.
Fadahunsi, who represents Osun East Senatorial District, had earlier denied allegations that he directed his supporters to kill members of the Accord, insisting that he was quoted out of context.
However, in the letter signed by his solicitor, Ekene Amadi, and titled, ‘Resign now, you have a killer’s mind and lacking strength of character for public office representation’, Ajibola accused the senator of making threats against opposition members.
The letter, which was copied to President Bola Tinubu and Senate President Godswill Akpabio, alleged that Fadahunsi had threatened to deal with members of the opposition since October 2025.
Ajibola said he and Fadahunsi were from the same constituency and previously belonged to the Peoples Democratic Party before their political paths diverged.
According to him, “Fadahunsi defected to the All Progressives Congress, while he moved to the Accord. I and other PDP members had contributed financially, electorally and otherwise to Fadahunsi’s victories in the 2019 and 2023 elections.”
The letter alleged that “Fadahunsi had, since October 2025, threatened that Accord members would face arrest and alleged killings after the 2026 Osun governorship election.”
It claimed that between June 1 and August 10, several Accord members had been arrested or detained, while some were allegedly killed.
Ajibola also alleged that on August 11, four days before the Osun governorship election, Fadahunsi directed political supporters to attack Accord members during political activities in Ilesa.
The lawmaker described the alleged conduct “as a violation of the senator’s oath of office. Fadahunsi is no longer fit to continue representing Osun East in the Senate.”
The letter demanded that Fadahunsi resign within 30 days of receiving it and withdraw from future public service.
It warned that failure to comply would result in legal proceedings, stating that he would face “the full rigour of law and a legal action shall be taken against you”.
