APC Will Sweep Oyo LG Poll – Minister

Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, has expressed optimism that the Oyo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will participate in the forthcoming polls and sweep the election with or without the use of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS).
He said the party was ready and in high spirit to win the election slated for April 27, 2024 because the party has reunited its folds.

Adelabu who spoke shortly after meeting party leaders, state executive council members, as well as the chairmanship and councillorship candidates for the council poll at the state party secretariat, Ibadan yesterday said the party had agreed to participate in the council election either the Oyo State Independent Electoral Commission (OYSIEC) deploys the use of BVAS or not because it would be difficult to manipulate the election in this social media age.

He appealed to the party members in the state to remain united and focus so as to come out victorious in the coming election.
“We are here to wish our members complements of the season and also wish them a successful completion of the Ramadan fast.

“We also seized the opportunity to meet the party executive members and party leaders across the state and our candidates for the chairmanship and councillors’ positions for the coming local government elections in Oyo state.

“We discussed generally about the progress of the party, now that the party has come together as one again. The party is back and we have what it takes to win any election in Oyo State today.
