The immediate past National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Iyiola Omisore, has declared that the party is not contesting next year’s governorship election in Osun State to participate but is determined to win.
In a statement issued by his media office and signed by Jamiu Olawumi, the former Deputy Governor stated that he is committed to due process and consensus-building, hence his decision to engage with party members at the grassroots before making a final decision.
Similarly, Hon. Olanrewaju Balogun, Chairman of Ilesa East Local Government Area, described Omisore’s project as a unity agenda. “With these successful engagements, Senator Omisore is set to continue consultations across the state in what many stakeholders are calling the beginning of a rescue mission for Osun State,” he said.
The consultation tour also featured a courtesy visit to Chief Akinwande Ayinde Akinola, the Sawe of Ilesa, at his country home in Ijamo, where discussions centred on reinforcing mutual commitment to Osun’s progress.
