Well-meaning Nigerians on Twitter have questioned Senator Ademola Adeleke’s absence during the just-completed debate for Osun State governorship candidates organised by Channels Television.

Many expressed their disappointment at his absence and opined that the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate does not have any concrete plan for the people of the state.

Some Twitter users opined that Adeleke who is known to be a “hot stepper” was absent because “after all, it’s not a dancing competition.”

Meanwhile, some shared some videos of Adeleke doing his thing (dancing) while attending several social functions.

One Twitter user @obicharles11, wrote;

“Senator Adeleke is absent in #OsunDebate

“This means he doesn’t feel the need to explain to the people of Osun his plans&actions of reforming the state

“He has nothing to offer but dance his way into office so as to squander our money

“He is disrespectful, & no apology can mend this.”

Another user wrote, @Chief_OG_Karo, wrote

“Senator Adeleke knows that those who will vote for him are not those watching the TV right now, they are the people on the road he will distribute 2k each and will go mass on that day to vote. Don’t just get your PVC, use it! #OsunDebate.”

Meanwhile, the governorship candidates are Fatai Akinbade, African Democratic Congress (ADC); Moshood Adeoti, Action Democratic Party (ADP); Gboyega Oyetola, All Progressives Congress (APC); Ademola Adeleke, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Iyiola Omisore of the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

All candidates were present for the #OsunDebate except Senator Adeleke.

Recall that music star, Davido was in his hometown to garner support for his uncle in the September 22 election.

He shared photos of the large turnout of youths during the campaign oh his social media handles.

#OsunDebate I really would have loved to hear Senator Adeleke speak I might be wrong but I feel he has nothing to offer as a governor …shame his not present to proof me wrong

I’ve always told people that I doubt that Senator Adeleke has anything cogent to offer the people. His absence further convinces me. After all, it’s better to not have said anything at all than to be available to say rubbish. #OsunDebate

Where is senator adeleke na?? Seems senator iyiola omisore will beat them all in this debate tho.

I’m guessing Davido will be the one to organize Senator Adeleke’s debate.
Venue: Rumours Nite Club.
Come with your dancing shoes.#OsunDebate

Senator Adeleke will never show up for debates.. If it’s to be rolling waist like gorodom now you will find him first in line…

So Senator Adeleke, the candidate of @OfficialPDPNig has refused to show up at #OsunDebate. Would have been nice to hear what he has in stock beyond dancing.

#OsunDebate senator Adeleke’s absent is a strategy, is it not safer not to come and find an excuse later, than to come and use your mouth to spoil everything. All the candidates present are not inspiring, that’s bad for their image. Mind you it’s not compulsory…

Y is Senator Adeleke not on the Governorship debate on Channels Tv? Is it that he has nothing to tell the people of Osun state or hez some where busy dancing with Davido? If it’s dancing contest, Adeleke will be on the fore front

God forbid Senator Adeleke ends up being the governor of my state.

Senator Adeleke knows that those who will vote for him are not those watching the TV right now, they are the people on the road he will distribute 2k each and will go mass on that day to vote. Don’t just get your PVC, use it! #OsunDebate
