The Osun State Government has issued a public alert regarding a security breach of Governor Ademola Adeleke’s official telephone number.
The compromised number, +234 803 365 7555, has been hacked, and potential fraudulent communications may have been sent from it.
According to a statement released by the Governor’s spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, the public is strongly advised to disregard any calls or messages received from the hacked number.
“Members of the public should ignore any such communications as they are not authorized by the Governor,” Rasheed emphasized.
The state government is actively addressing the breach and restoring security to the Governor’s communication channels.

The government has urged residents and officials to report any suspicious activities or interactions related to the compromised number.
“We promise to keep the public updated as we work to resolve the situation and strengthen security measures around the Governor’s telecommunications,” Rasheed said.
This incident is not the first time a state Governor’s phone number has been hacked, as Cross Rivers State Governor Bassey Otu’s phone numbers were compromised by criminals in February 2023.
