While congratulating all other flag bearers of the party in the state, Olowofela urged them to do everything humanly possible to reconcile all other aggrieved members, adding that “a house that is divided against itself shall not stand”.

“I call on APC members who are disenfranchised one way or the other to bury the hatchet and embrace new dawn in the party. Oyo State APC members should latch on to the dawn of new hope and support Senator Teslim Folarin as an emerging Gubernatorial Candidate in the state.

“Furthermore I seize this moment to congratulate all other Flag bearers for Senate, House of Representatives, and State House of Assembly. I pray that you win your elections in the year 2023.
