The quartet of Odetomi, Ogunwuyi, Ojo and Ajao, political observers told OYO INSIGHT, would make the contest keen and explosive.

The duo of Ojo and Ogunwuyi were former governor Adebayo Alao-Ajala’s loyalists. Ogunwuyi, who is eyeing a second term, was a member of the Oyo State House of Assembly between 2011 and 2015. He fell out with his former boss not long ago. Though he still calls Alao-Akala his boss, Sixty-eight year Ojo, who is completing his second term in the Oyo Assembly failed to defect to the ADP with him as he had already been handed the Reps ticket. He was made speaker to keep Alao-Akala in the APC. 

Odetomi fell out with Ajimobi in the build-up to the 2015 election.
