2026: Osun APC commences grassroots mobilization, preaches unity

The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has grassroot mobilization of voters ahead of voters and peace building ahead of future tasks.

The state executive officers of the party, led by its chairman, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, began its statewide sensitisation programme, yesterday, from Ila-Orangun, the home town of Chief Bisi Akande, the first interim national chairman of the party.

Party members thronged out en mass to participate in the event held at the Country Home of Akande.

Addressing the party members and their supporters, Sooko Lawal who announced the bringing of a good tiding for the stakeholders of the party from Chief Akande and the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola, the state leader of the party who was the immediate-past governor of the state, enjoined the stakeholders of the party in Ila Local Government Council Area of the state to imbibe unity in the overall interest of the fortune of the party in the future elections.

In the words of Lawal: “I am bringing a good tiding to you all from our father, Chief Bisi Akande and the leader of the party, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola, who have tasked us to continue to work in unison in the overall interest of the party.

“Our mission is to work assiduously as a party and restore back the lost glory of the party which was fraudulently taken away from it through the last series of elections in the state.

“We thank the Almighty God who has made our job easy through the acts of mis-governance and extreme poor public engagements of the current actors in the administration of the state.

“It is necessary for us to continue to collectively work as a team in order to realize our political aspirations and engage in political evangelism designed to win more souls and the disenchanted members with genuine intentions back into the party”, the state party chairman stated.

The sensitisation train of the APC was later moved to Otan-Aiyegbaju, the headquarters of Boluwaduro Local Government Council Area of the state where the leaders and supporters of the party also welcomed the state contingent with fanfare.

The state chairman of the APC replicated his Ila-Orangun message to the members and leaders of the party who thronged the venue from the various towns, villages and communities constituting the local government.

Lawal however, disclosed that he wasn’t encouraged with the current situation of the APC in Boluwaduro Local Government, tasking the leaders and other stakeholders of the party to engage in a ferocious task of improving the fortune of the party in the local government council area
