The declaration of Senator Sharafadeen Abiodun Alli for the 2027 Oyo governorship has triggered a wave of endorsements from high-ranking members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) across the state.
From the political hubs of Ibadan to the agricultural heartlands of Oke-Ogun, leaders have cited Alli's "inclusive approach" and "institutional memory" as the primary reasons for the growing consensus.
Unity in Purpose
Earlier today, a group of stakeholders from the Ibarapa zone released a joint statement commending the Senator's vision for local government autonomy. "We need a governor who recognizes that Oyo doesn't start and end in Agodi," the statement read.
Strategic Consultations
Since his declaration, Senator Alli has embarked on a "Unification Tour," meeting with disgruntled party members and old rivals to bridge gaps ahead of the primary season. This strategic move has been lauded by political analysts as a sign of maturity and readiness to lead not just a party, but the entire state.
