The National Secretary of All Progressives Congress( APC), Ajibola Basiru, has urged the three senators from Osun State who endorsed President Bola Tinubu for a second term to defect their party, the Peoples Democratic Party, for the APC.
Basiru, in excitement at the endorsement by the opposition party, said the PDP lawmakers have done what the Yorubas would call Omoluabi.
The APC scribe reacted through the Senator Ajibola Basiru Campaign Organisation in a statement signed by Remi Ajala, on behalf of SABCO.
Recalled that the trio Senators, Francis Fadahunsi (Osun East), Lere Oyewumi (Osun West), and Olubiyi Fadeyi (Osun Central) had issued a joint statement in support of President Tinubu, endorsing him as their sole and preferred presidential candidate for the upcoming election.
According to Basiru, who is seeking to succeed Governor Ademola Adeleke in the 2026 governorship election, said, “The public recognition by the PDP senators of President Tinubu’s achievements, especially in the areas of infrastructure development, economic reforms, food security, and national security, is a testimonial that Nigeria is working under our leader and moving towards the clear path of development and it shows a clear act of truthfulness and statesmanship.
He therefore, admonished the PDP senators to take their loyalty and support a step further, by wholly aligning with the progressive family at the national and state levels to cement their endorsement of President Tinubu.
According to the campaign organisation, their full alliance and alignment with APC at the state level will show true commitment and allow Osun State and its citizens to fully benefit from the President’s bigger vision to integrate development across the length and breadth of Nigeria.
The team therefore, advised the Osun state PDP senators to display courage by joining forces with the progressive elements and emulate other national assembly lawmakers who have already moved to the party. This is the time to act for the good of Osun State and Nigeria at large.
