2027: Oseni Pushes for United Oyo APC, Donates N10m to Party Secretariat

The federal lawmaker representing Ibarapa East/Ido Federal Constituency of Oyo State at the House of Representatives, Engr. Aderemi Oseni has initiated efforts to unify members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state ahead of the 2027 elections.

During his visit to the Oke-Ado party secretariat in Ibadan, Oseni, who was well received by the state executive on Monday, expressed gratitude to the party leaders and faithful for their support and nomination during and after the 2023 election process.

Speaking on the purpose of his visit, the lawmaker said, “I’m here for a few reasons. First, to offer my condolences to the party over the passing of our chairman, the late Barr. Isaac Omodewu. I also want to congratulate our acting chairman, Alhaji Olaide Abass, on assuming office. Additionally, I am here to provide an account of my activities and highlight President Tinubu’s efforts through the Renewed Hope agenda, aimed at bringing much-needed relief to Nigerians. I also want to express my gratitude to our party leaders and faithful for their unwavering support in my emergence. Without your backing, I wouldn’t be here today.”

He added, “I am here to engage in discussions with the party as a family, on how we can not only secure victory in the national elections but also reclaim power in the state come 2027”, he added.

In a statement on Wednesday by his media aide, Idowu Ayodele and made available to newsmen in Ibadan, Oseni noted that since the passing of former Governor Abiola Ajimobi, Oyo APC has faced significant challenges, as reflected in the last elections, leading to the party’s loss of the governorship seat.

He attributed this setback to the absence of a recognised and acceptable leader who could effectively manage and pilot the party’s affairs together with its executives and stakeholders.

Oseni called on other stakeholders to unite in order to reorganise, refocus, and reposition the party for victory in 2027.

“I urge all party members and stakeholders to come together and foster unity. I also call on the party’s executives to develop a blueprint that will return our great party to power. It is the responsibility of our leaders to come together at various geopolitical zones of the state to see whatever they can do in order for us to have a common goal as far as the 2027 elections are concerned”, the lawmaker stressed.

The APC chieftain pledged to support the smooth and effective running of the state party secretariat, while other stakeholders were encouraged to join in. As part of his commitment, he made an immediate donation of ten million naira (N10m) for operational allowances.

Oseni, who also serves as the Chairman of the House Committee on the Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA), reassured Nigerians that the cost of essential commodities, including food items, would soon return to normal levels once road infrastructure is fixed.

He informed that the federal government, under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, had declared a state of emergency on road infrastructure and was ready to fix federal roads across the country.

In his remarks, the acting Chairman of Oyo APC, Alhaji Olaide Abass, thanked Oseni for taking the time to visit the party secretariat. He also commended the lawmaker’s continued support for the party and his positive impact on the lives of his constituents.

Alhaji Abass added that the party was proud of the lawmaker’s achievements and dedication to the development of his constituency.
