The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the 2027 governorship election in Oyo State, Bola Tinubu, yesterday, received the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) nomination form.
The senator, representing Oyo South Senatorial District, also unveiled Adesoji Michael Adedeji, a native of Iwo-Ate in Ogo Oluwa Local Council as his running mate.
Relatedly, the APC governorship candidate for Ogun State in 2027, Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, has called on party members in Ogun West Senatorial District to remain united, work together, and embrace new entrants ahead of the elections.
Adeola gave the charge during the Ogun West APC stakeholders’ consultative meeting held yesterday at the Asade Agunloye Pavilion, Empire Ground, Ilaro, Ogun State.
The APC Chairman in Oyo State and former Deputy Governor, Moses Alake Adeyemo, urged party members to remain united and work together to secure victory in the 2027 elections.
Adeyemo said it was better for the party to be in government than in the opposition, appealing to aggrieved members to put aside their grievances and support the APC.
Also, the APC Deputy National Auditor, Gbenga Olayemi, while presenting the INEC nomination form to Alli, described the governorship candidate as the party’s flagbearer rather than an individual candidate.
In his acceptance speech, Alli described his emergence as the party’s candidate as a collective victory for all APC members and pledged to lead with fairness, accountability and inclusiveness if elected.
