<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In bid of a credible candidate emergency for Kosofe Federal Constituency ahead 2027 general election.</p>
<p>Coalition of civil society organisations in Kosofe has urged the All Progressives Congress (APC) to present credible candidates for the forthcoming general elections.</p>
<p>The coalition made this clarion call a press conference held on Tuesday in Ketu area of Lagos state, through its co-conveners, Comrade Alex Omotehinse and Comrade Waheed Odunuga.</p>
<p>Omotehinse clarified that the engagement was organised in line with the coalition’s mandate to promote accountability, participatory democracy, and evidence-based civic engagement within Kosofe Federal Constituency ahead of the 2027 general elections.</p>
<p>Omotehinse disclosed that following a comprehensive review process, the coalition assessed governance outcomes within the constituency, with particular focus on developments recorded in Agboyi-Ketu LCDA between 2017 and 2025 under the leadership of the immediate past Executive Chairman, Mayor Dele Oshinowo.</p>
<p>According to him, the assessment was further strengthened by a stakeholders’ meeting held on April 15, 2026, where deliberations were conducted on aspirants seeking to represent Kosofe Federal Constituency.</p>
<p>“The coalition reached a unanimous position based on empirical evaluation, stakeholder inputs, and verifiable governance records,” he said.</p>
<p>Omotehinse listed key achievements attributed to Oshinowo’s tenure to include infrastructural expansion through the development of administrative complexes, legislative facilities, and modern markets, which enhanced institutional efficiency, created jobs, and boosted internally generated revenue.</p>
<p>He added that the administration also implemented sustainable water and sanitation projects, including multi-community industrial boreholes, improved road networks to enhance mobility and commerce, and invested in education through school construction, rehabilitation, and student support initiatives.</p>
<p>Other areas highlighted include strengthened primary healthcare delivery through facility upgrades and medical outreach programmes, as well as youth empowerment and economic inclusion initiatives focused on skills development and enterprise support.</p>
<p>The coalition concluded that Oshinowo has demonstrated a consistent record of public service anchored on delivery, innovation, and accountability.</p>
<p>“An objective comparative analysis places him in a leading position among aspirants across political divides. His tenure provides a credible governance framework that can be effectively translated into legislative representation at the federal level,” he said.</p>
<p>The group called on constituents to prioritise competence, integrity, and proven performance in the electoral process, stressing the importance of informed civic participation.</p>
<p>“We encourage citizens and stakeholders within Kosofe Federal Constituency to support leadership that reflects tested capacity and a clear commitment to inclusive development,” he added.</p>
<p>Omotehinse maintained that the position of the coalition was based on empirical evaluation and guided by the principles of transparency, justice, and accountable governance.</p>
<p>He further stated that the coalition unanimously agreed that Mayor Dele Oshinowo is best positioned among aspirants to represent Kosofe Federal Constituency at the National Assembly.</p>
<p>Speaking further, he noted that Oshinowo’s tenure as chairman was marked by notable achievements, including the development of housing estates, resolution of community disputes, construction of stadia, and transformation of markets into modern facilities.</p>
<p>“We conducted thorough assessments and engaged residents of the constituency. Though we are not members of any political party, we believe the APC should present a credible candidate. If the party fails to do so, he may consider contesting on another platform,” he said.</p>
<p>On the issue of consensus, Omotehinse said it remains an internal party matter but expressed confidence that Oshinowo would emerge if a primary election is conducted.</p>
<p>Addressing concerns over the Owode Onirin demolition, he stated that although the incident occurred during Oshinowo’s tenure, investigations revealed it was carried out by a private individual following a court judgment on a portion of the land.</p>
<p>He explained that the demolition, which affected parts of the spare parts market, is currently a subject of litigation, adding that Oshinowo was no longer in office when the situation escalated in August 2025.</p>

<p>The project, designed to improve access to clean and potable water within the busy commercial hub, was officially commissioned by former Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Her Excellency Princess Serah Sosan Adebisi, amid cheers from traders and community members who described the initiative as timely and impactful.</p>
<p>Speaking at the event, Hon. Aganga-Williams reiterated his commitment to grassroots development and the welfare of his constituents.

<p>In her remarks, Princess Serah Sosan Adebisi praised the effort and encouraged continued support for leaders who prioritize the needs of the people. Similarly, Hon. Durosinmi expressed satisfaction with the project, highlighting its direct benefits to traders and residents.</p>
<p>The President of the Amalgamated Alaba International Market, High Chief Camilus Nnamdi, expressed deep appreciation on behalf of the market leadership, reaffirming their support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and pledging continued mobilization for the party.</p>

<p>In recent times, Nigeria’s political landscape has continued to provoke deep concern among critical stakeholders and observers. There is a growing sense of dissatisfaction driven by what appears to be a persistent decline in empathy, commitment, and structured political mentoring within the leadership hierarchy of many political parties—particularly among the dominant and ruling class.</p>
<p>This trend is not only troubling but poses a significant threat to the sustainability of inclusive governance and democratic development.</p>
<p>Across party lines, there is an observable pattern of leadership disconnect, characterized by poor reward systems, selective engagement, and an apparent lack of genuine interest in nurturing competent and deserving individuals for leadership roles. For many committed members, especially those who have invested time, resources, and personal credibility into party development, the experience has become increasingly discouraging.</p>
<p>It is not uncommon to encounter sentiments of frustration among party faithful who feel marginalized by an emerging leadership culture that prioritizes loyalty over competence and patronage over merit. In some extreme instances, influential political figures have even expressed the belief that governance can function effectively without a structured team—undermining the very essence of collaborative leadership and institutional governance.</p>
<p>As a stakeholder with considerable experience within Nigeria’s political system, I have observed—albeit with concern—a growing wave of disaffection among party members, particularly young professionals who once viewed politics as a platform for meaningful contribution and service.</p>
<p>Today, that perception is rapidly changing.</p>
<p>The absence of empathy and commitment in leadership has fostered an environment where many young, intelligent, and capable individuals feel undervalued. Instead of being encouraged and empowered, they are often subjected to a culture of servitude, exclusion, and selective recognition. This has led to a gradual withdrawal of some of the brightest minds from active political participation.</p>
<p>The implications are far-reaching.</p>
<p>A political system that fails to attract and retain its best minds inevitably creates a vacuum—one that is quickly filled by mediocrity. This reality is becoming increasingly evident in governance outcomes, where declining performance can often be traced to a deficit in intellectual capacity, strategic thinking, and innovative leadership.</p>
<p>Historically, Nigeria’s early political eras—particularly during the First and Second Republics—benefited from a leadership culture that valued competence, rewarded contribution, and actively mentored emerging leaders. These systems attracted some of the finest minds, who in turn shaped policies and governance frameworks that drove national development.</p>
<p>Today, however, there appears to be a departure from those ideals.</p>
<p>Rather than fostering excellence, the current system in many instances promotes a structure where less competent but loyal individuals are elevated above more qualified counterparts. This not only discourages excellence but also fuels political apathy, defections, and fragmentation within party systems.</p>
<p>Many frustrated professionals are now faced with difficult choices: compromise their values to fit into a flawed system, withdraw entirely from politics, or seek alternative platforms where their contributions may be better appreciated.</p>
<p>None of these outcomes serve the long-term interest of Nigeria’s democracy.</p>
<p>If this trend is left unchecked, the consequences will be profound. The nation risks further entrenching a cycle of underperformance in governance, weakened institutions, and a widening gap between leadership and the people.</p>
<p>There is, therefore, an urgent need for introspection and reform.</p>
<p>Political leaders at all levels must recognize their role not just as office holders, but as mentors and nation builders. Leadership must be redefined to reflect empathy, inclusiveness, fairness, and a genuine commitment to developing others. Structured mentoring systems, transparent reward mechanisms, and merit-based opportunities must become the cornerstone of political engagement.</p>
<p>Encouragingly, a new wave of emerging leaders is beginning to challenge the status quo. There is a growing movement committed to restoring the values of quality leadership, accountability, and people-centered governance. This movement seeks to create an enabling environment that attracts brilliant, innovative, and forward-thinking individuals into politics.</p>
<p>The goal is clear: to build a political system that is not only competitive but also competent—one that delivers sustainable growth and development for all.</p>
<p>The future of Nigeria’s democracy depends on the choices we make today. Rebuilding trust, restoring merit, and institutionalizing empathy in leadership are no longer optional—they the are imperative.</p>

<p>Distinguished Senator Yunus Akintunde, representing Oyo Central Senatorial District and Chairman of the Logistics Sub-Committee for the forthcoming National Convention of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has assured Nigerians of a unique and excellent experience at the highly anticipated event.</p>

<p>The National Convention of the ruling All Progressives Congress, under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is scheduled to hold in Abuja this weekend.</p>
<p>Similarly, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, in an earlier statement issued through the party’s National Secretary, Ajibola Bashiru (SAN), also assured Nigerians of a well-planned and historic National Convention.</p>
<p>The assignment places the Oyo Central lawmaker at the center of preparations for one of the party’s most important internal democratic exercises, reflecting the confidence reposed in his capacity, leadership experience, and commitment to party organization.</p>
<p>Other key members of the Logistics Sub-Committee include:<br />
Dr. Mansur Liman – Co-Chairman, Dr. Chief Dilion Oyuwa – Vice Chairman, Onyeka Owella Mbaso – Secretary, Alhaji Ali Ibrahim Dutse – Assistant Secretary, Alhaji Ubale Hashim – Member, Prince Nwabueze Igwe – Member, Lolade Okuowo – Member, Emperor Jarret Tenebe – Member, and Monye Lucky Elis – Member.</p>
<p>The 2026 APC National Convention is anticipated to draw considerable attention within Nigeria’s political scene as the ruling party seeks to strengthen its internal structures and promote party democracy ahead of upcoming elections</p>

<p>The lawmaker representing Oluyole Federal Constituency, Tolulope Akande-Sadipe, has denied allegations linking her loyalists to the disruption that occurred during the All Progressives Congress (APC) Local Government Congress in Oluyole, describing the claims as false and politically motivated.</p>
<p>In a statement issued by her media office, Akande-Sadipe said she was not present at the congress and did not authorize, sponsor, or encourage any act of violence before, during, or after the exercise.</p>
<p>She dismissed attempts to associate her name with thuggery or disorder, insisting that such narratives were misleading.</p>
<p>&#8220;More so, the individuals who orchestrated and led the thugs are widely known to members of the Party&#8221;, she said.</p>
<p>The lawmaker reaffirmed her commitment to peace, internal democracy, and unity within the APC in Oluyole Local Government.</p>
<p>She noted that throughout her political career, she has consistently worked to reconcile aggrieved party members, promote dialogue, and prevent factional crises within the party.</p>
<p>While acknowledging that party congresses can generate heightened emotions, Akande-Sadipe stressed the need for maturity and due process in resolving disputes rather than resorting to public accusations or media trials.</p>
<p>She welcomed a thorough and independent investigation by relevant security agencies and party authorities into the incident.</p>
<p>According to the statement, she supports a review of available evidence, including eyewitness accounts and audiovisual materials from the venue, and urged party members with credible information to cooperate fully with investigators.</p>
<p>She also called for restraint in public commentary pending the outcome of formal inquiries.</p>
<p>Akande-Sadipe cautioned against what she described as the growing trend of weaponizing unverified allegations in the political space, warning that such actions could deepen mistrust and destabilize the party.</p>
<p>She reiterated her loyalty to the APC and respect for its structures.</p>
<p>The lawmaker commended security agencies for restoring calm after the incident and expressed sympathy to anyone who may have sustained injuries.</p>
<p>She maintained that violence has no place in the party and that anyone found culpable should face appropriate consequences under the law and party regulations.</p>
<p>Akande-Sadipe called on stakeholders, elders, youth leaders, ward executives, and party faithful in Oluyole to rise above factional rhetoric and recommit to unity and discipline, emphasizing that the strength of the APC in the area lies in solidarity rather than division.</p>

<p><span style="font-size: 14px;">The All Progressives Congress local government congress in Oluyole was marred by violence on Saturday, with clashes that reportedly left several party members injured.</span></p>
<p>The exercise, organised to elect executives in the local government area was disrupted at Olomi Ward 7, by suspected heavily-armed political thugs allegedly linked to a member of the party, Prof. Abiodun Gbolagade, who is an Aspirant for the 2027 Oluyole Federal Constituency seat in the House of Representatives</p>
<p>Many persons were reportedly wounded during the unrest, while Hon. Idowu Oyawale, the campaign Director-general of House of Representatives member, Tolulope Akande-Sadipe during the last general elections sustained severe injuries and is currently receiving treatment at an hospital.</p>
<p>According to reports, the heavily-armed group stormed the congress venue at Olomi Basic School 1, dispersing party members and officials supervising the exercise, with stones, clubs and other weapons.</p>
<p>Eyewitnesses said tensions escalated unprovoked over delegates’ lists and ward executive positions.</p>
<p>The disagreement reportedly degenerated into physical altercations before the violent attacks on party members loyal to a House of Representatives member, Hon. Tolulope Akande-Sadipe.</p>
<p>It was learnt that security operatives led a tactical team to restore order, peace, and disperse the attackers.</p>
<p>The eyewitness said, &#8220;Let it be on record that today, 21st February, 2026 at Olomi APC Oluyole Local Government, Prof. Abiodun Gbolagade mobilised thugs to attack APC members in Oluyole. Those attacked include: Mama Olole (Ward 4), Bukola (Ward 2), Arowolaje and Hon. Idowu Oyewale. The thugs allegedly mobilised by Prof. Abiodun Gbolagade were led by some party members namely Abdullahi Sakariyahu Aresa (Ward 3), Taiwo Idris (Ward 3), Femi aka Iku (Ward 3). Kazeem Oloro (Ward 7), Magi (ward 2) apart from stoning, slapped an 80 year old woman Adebimpe Esho, Ismaila Ajimobi (Ward 2) Kola Okunade (Ward 2), Adeniji Abiodun Aderemi (Ward 3), Babatunde Blessing Muideen (Ward 7), Lafiku Idowu (Ward 4), and Sulaimon Babatunde Omolaja (Ward 3) PA of outgoing Chairman&#8221;.</p>
<p>The same group of people, allegedly attacked unprovoked at Ward 2 and Ward 7 during the Ward Primaries.</p>
<p>Reacting to the incident, some party leaders and elders condemned the violence, describing it as unfortunate and capable of undermining the credibility of the internal democratic process.</p>
<p>The leaders have called on Party Chieftains and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to immediately order an investigation into the violent attacks.</p>

<hr />
<p>The Senator representing Oyo Central Senatorial District at the National Assembly, Senator Yunus Akintunde, has affirmed that the sterling performance of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the need to sustain excellent governance informed his automatic adoption and endorsement as the sole Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State ahead of the 2027 General Elections.</p>
<p>Senator Akintunde made this known during the statewide sensitisation rallies organised by the Hope Ambassadors, Oyo State Chapter, under the leadership of Senator Teslim Folarin, Alhaji Fatai Ibikunle, and the State APC Chairman, Elder Olaide Abass, alongside members of the State Executive Committee and other critical stakeholders.</p>
<p>The rallies, which held across major centres in Oyo State, attracted prominent party leaders including Chief Mrs Florence Ajimobi, Chief Bayo Adelabu, Minister of Power, and other party faithful. Participants unanimously expressed confidence that a second-term mandate for President Tinubu would consolidate the ongoing economic and developmental repositioning of Nigeria for the benefit of all citizens.</p>
<p>Senator Akintunde acknowledged the desire of Nigerians for a rapid recovery from the economic challenges inherited from previous administrations. He noted, however, that the Hope Agenda and reform programmes of the Tinubu administration have begun to yield positive results, with the economy rebounding faster than anticipated and setting the stage for sustained and shared prosperity.</p>
<p>He emphasised that the consistent message from stakeholders at the events was the firm endorsement of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the APC’s sole presidential candidate in 2027, coupled with the party’s readiness and determination to win elections at all levels—national and sub-national.</p>
<p>According to Akintunde, while Nigerians have experienced difficult times, President Tinubu has remained empathetic and transparent about the challenges confronting the nation. He stressed that the reforms—though initially painful—are necessary and that the resilience of Nigerians is already being rewarded with visible economic improvements.</p>
<p>“There is no doubt that a second term for President Tinubu will further entrench sustainable development and excellent governance, consolidating the gains achieved so far and addressing early misconceptions about the administration,” he said.</p>
<p>At the opening ceremony of the Hope Ambassadors Sensitisation Programme held at Adeyemi Arcade, Oyo, Senator Akintunde formally moved the motion for the adoption of President Tinubu as the APC’s sole presidential candidate. The motion was seconded by Hon. Akeem Adeyemi (Skimeh) and unanimously endorsed by the party leadership and members present.</p>
<p>The adoption was subsequently echoed across Ogbomoso, Oke Ogun, Ibarapa, Surulere/Ogo Oluwa, Akinyele, Ona Ara, Oluyole, and the Ibadan metropolis—covering Ibadan South East, South West, North East, North West, and Ibadan North Local Governments. Past and serving Senators and House of Representatives members, including Senators Sarafadeen Alli, Abdulfatah Buhari, Femi Lanlehin, Ayo Adeseun, Hosea Agboola, and Honourables Muraina Sabauna, Segun Odebunmi (Bonvic), Wasiu Olafioye, Remi Oseni, Akin Alabi, among others, actively participated and adopted the motion.</p>
<p>President Bola Ahmed Tinubu assumed office in May 2023 following his victory in a keenly contested presidential election on the platform of the APC. Since then, his administration has embarked on far-reaching security and economic reforms, including the removal of fuel subsidy, foreign exchange reforms, tax restructuring, and major investments in education, infrastructure, power, health, environment, defence, and national security.</p>
<p>These reforms, though initially challenging, are increasingly being recognised as necessary steps toward long-term economic stability and national growth.</p>
<p>Senator Akintunde assured Nigerians, particularly the people of Oyo State, that all arms of government—the Executive, Legislature, and Judiciary—remain committed to working with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to ensure rapid national development, improved quality of life, and the overall wellbeing of citizens.</p>

<p>According to him, this renewed optimism is anchored on the collective resolve of critical stakeholders, party leaders, and members of the APC in Oyo State, who have unanimously set aside personal differences to embrace unity, cooperation, and a shared commitment toward repositioning the party for electoral success.</p>
<p>Senator Akintunde noted that the APC in Oyo State has entered a new phase marked by reconciliation, strategic alignment, and collective purpose, all of which are essential for securing victory in the forthcoming elections.</p>
<p>The Distinguished Senator has been actively engaging party faithful across the state as part of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors’ sensitisation tour, aimed at mobilising citizens and strengthening the party’s strategic positioning ahead of the commencement of official electioneering activities, as Nigeria prepares for INEC’s formal declaration toward the 2027 general elections.</p>
<p>Speaking alongside other APC leaders in Oyo State, Senator Akintunde reiterated the shared conviction among party stakeholders on the urgency of closing ranks and presenting a strong, united front as the party moves closer to 2027.</p>
<p>The Renewed Hope Ambassadors’ sensitisation programmes have already been successfully held in Oyo, Ogbomoso, Iseyin, Igboora, and Akinyele, with forthcoming engagements scheduled for Egbeda/Ona-Ara, Oluyole, Ibadan South-East, Ibadan North-East, Ibadan South-West and Ibadan North and North West. Across all locations, party leaders have consistently echoed the same message of unity, cooperation, strategic planning, and unwavering confidence in APC’s assured victory in 2027.</p>
<p>“We are approaching the 2027 general elections with a spirit of synergy, fairness, equity, love, collective responsibility, and absolute determination to win at all levels,” Senator Akintunde stated.</p>
<p>He further affirmed that the party has assured President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of its full support for his automatic ticket as the APC’s presidential candidate and flag bearer in 2027. The party is also confident of retaining its senatorial seats, winning all House of Representatives positions, reclaiming the governorship, and securing all seats in the Oyo State House of Assembly.</p>
<p>“We are confident of total victory by the grace of God, and we are leaving nothing to chance. All hands are now on deck, having drawn valuable lessons from past experiences,” he added.</p>
<p>Senator Akintunde has continued to work closely with prominent party leaders, including Senator Teslim Folarin, Oyo State Ambassador for the Renewed Hope Project 2027; Chief Mrs Florence Ajimobi; Alhaji Fatai Ibikunle; Senators Sarafadeen Ali, Fatai Buhari, Chief Bayo Adelabu, Ayo Adeseun, and Hosea Agboola; Akeem Agbaje; and Dr Muyiwa Gbadegesin, among others.</p>
<p>These leaders, alongside the party executive and elders under the leadership of Pharmacist Olaide Abas, Oyo State Chairman of APC have spearheaded extensive reconciliation efforts involving critical stakeholders, culminating in the renewed unity now evident within the Oyo State APC.</p>
<p>Senator Akintunde assured party members and the good people of Oyo State that the state will soon witness a return to quality governance, as Oyo aligns with the federal government under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027.</p>
