In a groundbreaking event at Ilaji Hotels and Resorts, the traditional rulers of Ibadanland, collectively known as Baales, have thrown their weight behind Jubril Dotun Sanusi’s campaign for governor, signaling a pivotal shift in Oyo State’s political landscape.
The gathering, marked by a sense of urgency and purpose, saw the Baales not only affirm their endorsement but also pledge financial contributions to bolster Sanusi’s ambitions.
This unprecedented move highlights their confidence in his ability to lead and effect positive change within the state.
The Head of the Baales articulated their collective sentiment, stating that Sanusi’s past achievements and demonstrated leadership make him the best candidate for the governorship.
He called on Sanusi to accept this significant opportunity, assuring him of their unwavering trust.
In a show of solidarity, the Baales offered prayers and shared words of encouragement, reinforcing their commitment to what they termed the “JDS project.”
Their financial contributions were handed over to Chief Waheed Adurodekun, a notable supporter of Sanusi and a prominent member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Hon. Gbadamosi Kazeem, a former chairman of Lagelu Local Government, expressed gratitude for the Baales’ support, emphasizing the unity among political stakeholders in Oyo State rallying behind Sanusi.
He highlighted that Sanusi’s vision resonates with the populace, making him a formidable contender for the governorship.
In an extraordinary display of focus, the Baales declined entertainment from Sanusi, choosing instead to strategize for the campaign’s success.
They also took possession of registration booklets, aimed at mobilizing grassroots support, which indicates a well-organized effort to establish a robust political framework.
This endorsement from the traditional rulers not only enhances Sanusi’s credibility but also reflects a growing consensus around his vision for Oyo State.
With the backing of influential leaders in the community, Sanusi’s campaign appears to be gaining momentum, setting the stage for a potentially transformative electoral cycle.
At the same time, political dynamics are shifting within the ruling party, as Hon. Kazeem Gbadamosi hinted at possible realignments should the party’s gubernatorial ticket not align with the majority’s aspirations.
This adds another layer of complexity to the unfolding political narrative in Oyo State.
As the campaign progresses, the depth of support from the Baales is likely to play a critical role in shaping the electoral outcome, positioning Jubril Dotun Sanusi as a serious contender in the upcoming gubernatorial race.
