The party leaders, drawn from across the state’s local governments, declared their support during a strategic meeting held at Omisore’s campaign office in Osogbo. They urged the party to adopt him as its consensus candidate, describing him as the aspirant best positioned to deliver victory for the APC.
Speaking on behalf of the stakeholders, several ward chairmen explained that while other aspirants are qualified, Omisore’s wealth of political and administrative experience, both within Osun and at the national level, makes him a stronger contender. They further pledged to intensify grassroots mobilisation under the banner of the Omisore Agenda.
One after another, the ward executives shared the challenges facing their communities and appealed to Omisore to prioritise grassroots empowerment and welfare if elected governor.
Former House of Representatives member, Ajibola Famurewa, described Omisore as a “reliable politician with proven capacity” to lead Osun to greater heights. He urged the ward
leaders to redouble their efforts in promoting Omisore’s candidacy at the grassroots level.Echoing similar sentiments, former Commissioner for Education, Folorunsho Bamisayemi, assured the stakeholders that Omisore holds party executives in high regard and would prioritise their welfare while pursuing robust development across the state.
Addressing journalists after the meeting, Senator Omisore expressed appreciation for the endorsement, noting that the collective support of ward chairmen and councillors signals the APC’s readiness to face the polls with unity and strength.
“Since joining the race, I have engaged stakeholders across all nine federal constituencies to share my vision for Osun. Today’s endorsement is a clear indication that our party is marching in one direction,” he said.
Omisore also urged APC members to sustain love and unity in their communities while rallying support for President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
The endorsement follows an earlier meeting on Monday, 8 September 2025, where Omisore engaged local government party chairmen and council chairmen across the state in further consultations about his ambition.
With momentum building around his candidacy, Senator Omisore’s campaign appears to be gathering significant grassroots strength ahead of the APC primaries.
