Two chieftains of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State, Senator Olufemi Lanlehin and Professor Taoheed Adedoja, have assured party members that all grievances and complaints raised by stakeholders would be addressed to position the party for victory in the 2027 general elections.
The duo also pledged that “no aggrieved aspirant will be left behind in the ongoing reconciliation efforts,” stressing that the party is committed to restoring unity ahead of the polls.
Speaking in their acceptance speeches as chairman and co-chairman of the Oyo APC Reconciliation Committee, Lanlehin and Adedoja commended the Chief Moses Adeyemo-led State Executive Committee for setting up the committee, describing the move as a timely and strategic step towards strengthening the party.
Earlier, the Oyo APC Chairman, Chief Moses Adeyemo, charged members of the committee to deploy their goodwill, wisdom, and wealth of experience in resolving all grievances arising from the party’s recent congresses and primaries.
According to him, the objective is to ensure that the APC approaches the forthcoming elections as a united, strong and vibrant political family.
“We are not oblivious to the fact that the outcome of the last congresses, which produced executive committee members for the party at all levels, as well as the recent primaries that produced candidates for the 2027 elections, left in their wake some grievances among certain members and stakeholders.
“However, we do not want these grievances to snowball into an intractable crisis capable of undermining our chances at the polls.
“On our part, we are ready to dialogue with the aggrieved members and see what we can do to assuage their feelings.
“With the caliber of people on this committee, we have no doubt that you will do a thorough job and achieve the desired results within the next few weeks because we want absolute peace and unity to reign in the Oyo APC before, during, and after the forthcoming elections.
“It is understandable that agitations are loud because the APC remains the party to beat in any election in the country.
“However, we do not want to take anything for granted at this moment, as we have our eyes on delivering one million votes to President Bola Tinubu and returning to the Agodi Government House next year,” Adeyemo said.
Other members of the reconciliation committee, inaugurated on Wednesday at the APC Secretariat in Oke-Ado, Ibadan, include Senators Brimo Yusuf and Hosea Agboola, Chief Akin Oke, Mrs. Kemi Alao-Akala, Hon. Niran Alarape, Hon. Olagunju Ojo, Dr. Adebayo Adewusi, Pa Timothy Jolaoso, Alhaji Abu Gbadamosi, Engr. Idris Adeoye, Alhaji Isiaka Alimi, Aare Abisoye Fagade, Dr. Adekemi Opatunde, Engr. Dayo Lawal, Chief Goke Oyetunji, Alhaji Mufutau Adisa, Alhaji Kamorudeen Ajisafe, and Mrs. Mabel Williams, among others.
