The President of Adeleke University, Ede, Osun State, and billionaire businessman, Deji Adeleke, has challenged stakeholders to work together to entrench credibility in Nigeria’s electoral system.Adeleke, the elder brother of Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, spoke at the university’s 12th undergraduate and eighth postgraduate convocation ceremonies held on the institution’s campus in Ede on Sunday.He said no chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, no matter how competent, could single-handedly prevent election rigging.He, however, alleged that some corps members deployed for election duties and police officers providing security during elections often collude to manipulate results at polling units.“People die, there is violence during elections. They have killed young people like you graduating today who might become adult staff of INEC, changing figures.“You cannot blame that on the INEC chairman when youth corps members are collecting N50,000 and changing figures at the polling unit.“Even if the INEC chairman is a spirit, is he going to be at all the polling units in Nigeria?“Very soon we are going to have an election in Osun State. Osun State has 3,763 polling units. Is it humanly possible for the INEC chairman to be at all those polling units at the same time?“But they have entrusted it to young people like you, and yet they will collect money and change the figures. We also have policemen with children who need a good country to have a future, aiding and abetting the rigging process, and people are killed just because of elections,” Adeleke said.Related NewsAdeleke orders rehabilitation of Osogbo bridge ahead of new flyover inauguration2027: Persons with disabilities in Ogun vow unity, INEC partnershipTinubu celebrates Senator Omilani at 90He said the implications of a manipulated electoral process were grave for the country, noting that the international community would continue to “look at us as primitive and backward,” despite Nigerians being highly talented.“So, it’s very painful when you see these things happen because of ignorance of the implications of what people do on election day or the ignorance of judges perverting justice. The implication is that Nigeria will continue to regret it if it doesn’t change immediately. But it’s not too late for us to change. It’s never too late to start all over.”In his convocation address, the Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof. Solomon Adebola, said the institution had recorded steady growth since its establishment in 2011.He said the university admitted 1,554 students into various undergraduate and postgraduate programmes during the 2025/2026 academic session.Adebola also disclosed that the university had secured approval from the National Universities Commission to run Medicine (MBBS) and Pharmacy (Pharm.D) programmes and would commence admission into both programmes in the 2026/2027 academic session.Giving a breakdown of the graduating students, the Vice-Chancellor said, “We are graduating a total of One Thousand, Three Hundred and Seventy-Five (1,375) graduands from the College of Postgraduate Studies and six faculties for undergraduate studies.“For the undergraduate students, the best graduating students are Ejiofor Onyinyechukwu Sonia from the Department of Medical Laboratory Science with a CGPA of 5.00 and Kinosi Victor Oluwagbemiga from the Department of Economics with a CGPA of 5.00.“The best overall Master’s graduate is Olunlade Joshua Oluwafisayo, Master in Mechanical Engineering, with a Cumulative Weighted Average (CWA) of 80.02, while the best overall Ph.D graduate is Ukenyi Chibunna Godspower, Ph.D in Religious Studies (New Testament), with a Cumulative Weighted Average (CWA) of 77.32.”He urged the graduating students to see the completion of their studies as the beginning of another phase of life and to approach the future without fear.
