The leadership of the All Progressives Congress(APC) in Ibadan Outer City zone of Oyo state has charged stakeholders in the Party to leverage on the goals attained in the build up to the last local government council election to guarantee a resounding success in the 2027 general election.
A forum of leaders and key stakeholders from the zone met today at the New Ife Road Secretariat of the APC in Egbeda local government to discuss important issues relating to the progress of the broom party and its members. The zone which comprises of Akinyele, Egbeda, Ido, Lagelu, Oluyole and Ona-Ara local government areas were well represented at the meeting.
In a Communique issued at the meeting and signed by the duo of Alhaji Kamorudeen Ajisafe, JP (Chairman) and Bashorun Bilyamin Ogundele, (Secretary), the Forum expressed its appreciation to the good people of the state “who had anticipated a free and fair conduct of the botched April 27, 2024 by OYSIEC and trooped out to elect the candidates of the APC but got disenfranchised by some anti-democratic elements who later reeled out cooked results in favour of the ruling PDP.
“The Forum saluted the courage and commitment of the Omodewu-led State Executive Committee as well as all critical stakeholders and members of the the Technical Committee set up for the purpose of the anticipated local government council election which was later messed up. More importantly, it is worthwhile to thump up all the APC candidates at the said election for showing to the whole world that they were reliable and committee patriots who would stop at nothing to assist the cause of democracy and good governance for the benefit of the society.
“The Forum promises to work together with other relevant stakeholders to ensure that the gains of internal cohesion, unity and togetherness achieved so far were improved upon. We shall reach out to everyone who matters as we are poised to leave no stone unturned to put a stop to the maladministration of the PDP in Oyo state in 2027 as we cannot afford to disappoint the majority of the people of the state who have been direct or indirect victims of lies and deceit of the Makinde.” The Communique stated.
Highlights of the meeting included goodwill messages sent in by Senator Yunus, Hon. Akin Alabi and Hon. (Engr.) Aderemi Oseni who represent good fractions of the Zone in the National Assembly, Abuja while situation reports were also given by the Party Chairmen and State Executive Committee members from all the six local government areas in the Zone.
