A group under the aegis of O-FORTRACOM has rallied support for the Oyo State Governor, Senator Abiola Ajimobi as the candidate for Oyo South Senatorial district and Hon. Isaac Ajiboye Omodewu, the Commissioner for Lands, Housing and Survey to succeed Ajimobi as the next Governor of Oyo State.

While addressing the group at the party secretariat, the State Secretary of the All Progressive Congress, Mr. Mojeed Olaoya assured the group that the party would go for the best candidates when the time comes.
The group in their consultation equally visited Oyo town to meet other party stakeholders and important elder statesmen.
Speaking during the consultation, the leader of the team, Hon. Hammed Bakare Akomola stated that, for the state to continue to grow in the years to come, there is need for continuity as being practiced in a neighbouring State like Lagos.

They equally pledged their supports for Hon Isaac Ajiboye Omodewu who according to them has garnered enough experience from Governor Ajimobi having been with him since 2011 till date, stressing that Omodewu knows what government has done, what is doing and what ought to be done to ensure good governance and quality service delivery to the people in the State.
