A former Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice in Oyo State, Adebayo Mutalubi Ojo, has called on residents of the state to support the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, Senator Sharafadeen Abiodun Alli, in the 2027 governorship election.
Ojo, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and Ibadan indigene, made the call in a personally signed statement on Thursday titled, “A Governor That Oyo State Needs In 2027.”
The former commissioner said the state needed a governor who would be selfless, compassionate and independent, with the administrative experience to move the state forward.
He said, “Going forward, Oyo State deserves a Governor who is an astute Administrator and who is very compassionate, selfless, not a rent or an arbitrage seeker, not a wheeler-dealer, not a covetous and gluttonous property craze, not a treacherous person, not a pretender, but a firm, independent and not a protege or stooge.”
Ojo subsequently urged the people of Oyo State to support Alli, saying the senator possessed the experience he believed was required to lead the state.
He said, “I urge people to support Senator Sharafadeen Abiodun Alli of APC as the next Governor of Oyo State if you truly love Oyo State and you want a liberated Oyo State from modern-day Emperor and Government Reservation Areas Land Merchants.”
