Four governorship aspirants of the All Progressives Congress in Oyo State, on Sunday, reconciled with the party’s governorship candidate, Senator Sharafadeen Alli, and pledged to work for the party’s victory in the 2027 general elections.
The aspirants are former Deputy Governor of the state, Rauf Olaniyan; Oyedele Alao; Musbau Asanike; and Dr Ololade Bakare.
The reconciliation followed a series of meetings by the APC Governorship Aspirants’ Reconciliation Committee set up to address disagreements arising from the party’s governorship primary.
Chairman of the committee, Senator Olufemi Lanlehin, announced the development at a press conference held at a Blueline Hotel in the Akinyele Local Government Area of the state on Sunday.
Lanlehin said although some of the 11 aspirants who contested the primary had reservations about the process and its outcome, the need to build a stronger party ahead of the 2027 election had made reconciliation necessary.
