    Tinubu charges APC members – Close ranks to reclaim Oyo in 2027

    Published on

    Oyo State chieftains and All Progressives Congress (APC) members have been asked by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to unite and cooperate in order to retake the state in 2027.

    According to him, the state is too significant to be excluded from the progressive fold.

    At Monday’s first Lam Adesina annual lecture in Ibadan, the state capital, Tinubu made this claim while being represented by Mr. Adebayo Adelabu, Minister of Power.

    Alhaji Olayide Abas, the state’s APC chairman, Chief Iyiola Oladokun, Chief Alake Adeyemo, Senator Teslim Folarin, Senator Abdulfatai Buhari, and former Ekiti State governors Otunba Adeniyi Adebayo and Dr. Kayode Fayemi were present at the ceremony.

    Ibadanland’s Olubadan, Chief Imam, Apostle Sunday Popoola, Senator Olufemi Lanlehin, Barrister Bayo Shittu, Engineer Rauf Olaniyan, Elder Wole Oyelese, Hon. Aderemi Oseni, Sen. Adesoji Akanbi, Senator Monsurat Sunmonu, Chief Akin Oke, and Professor Adeolu Akande are among the others.

    During May 1999 until May 2003, Adesina served as the state’s governor.

    In both the 2019 and 2023 general elections, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) defeated the APC in the state.

    According to the minister, the greatest way to pay tribute to the former governor is to make sure that the party’s leaders unite in their efforts to win back the state in the upcoming elections.

    “Lam Adesina represented the high democratic values that form the foundation of the democratic system of governance,” he remarked. principles that must be upheld in order to guarantee that the people, either directly or through elected representatives, hold the authority.

    “Ideas of successful citizen participation in governance, where citizens express their opinions on policy decisions.”

    As a result, Oyo State’s Progressives must unite in remembrance of him. You all need to put up a fight and come out on top. It is imperative that Oyo State rejoin the progressive fold by 2027.

    In his remarks, Senate leader Senator Opeyemi Bamidele, through Senator Shuaib Salisu, emphasized the necessity for Nigerians to rediscover the values that would motivate them to be more responsible.
