Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has defended his well-known love for dancing, urging critics to focus on his performance in office rather than his personal expressions of joy

In a fresh public appearance, Adeleke responded to growing scrutiny over his frequent dance videos that often trend on social media. He emphasized that dancing is a harmless form of self-expression and does not hinder his ability to lead effectively.
“Stop judging me just because I choose to express myself through dancing. It is my joy, my freedom, and an essential part of who I am. If it brings me happiness and harms no one, then there is no reason it should be condemned,” the governor said.
Adeleke stressed that joyful public moments should not be mistaken for a lack of seriousness or commitment to governance. He pointed out that he is not the only politician who dances, but appears to receive more criticism than others.
“Sanwo-Olu is dancing. Everybody is dancing. Even Baba [President Bola Tinubu] is dancing. So, there is no law that says just because you are a governor, you can’t dance,” he added.
Nicknamed the “Dancing Governor,” Adeleke urged citizens and political analysts to focus on his achievements and policies, not his personal lifestyle.
“Judge me by my governance, not my hobbies,” he concluded.
