The APC Unity Frontiers, a group within the Oyo state chapter of the All Progressives Congress, has stated that the outcome of the Saturday’s Ibadan North by-election could be replicated in the 2027 gubernatorial elections if the Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu gets the party gubernatorial ticket.
The group made this assertion in a statement signed by its Chairman, Alhaji Akindele Olatubosun and secretary, Mr Taiwo Adeniyi on Sunday while reacting to the Ibadan North Bye-election result.
According to the APC Unity Frontiers, Adelabu’s sudden hijack of the party ticket for his person, Hon Olatunji Adewale also known as Murphy costs the party the election.
While calling for free, fair and credible primary election, the group added that if Murphy were to be a neutral person and not someone the Power Minister handpicked, the result of the election would have been otherwise.
The group urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the leadership of the party at the National level to save the party from any form of hijack which may result in failure in the 2027 general election.
The group said that this assertion is based on the fact that the people Oyo state don’t want to hear anything Adelabu due to his stingyness, arrogance and stubbornness.
The statement read in part: “The outcome of the Ibadan North by-election could be replicated in the 2027 gubernatorial elections if Chief Adebayo Adelabu gets the APC gubernatorial ticket.
“If Murphy were to be a neutral person and not someone the Power Minister handpicked, the result of the election would have been otherwise. The people of Oyo state don’t want to hear anything Adelabu due to his stinginess, arrogance, and stubbornness.
“We urge President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the leadership of the party at the national level to save the party from any form of hijack which may result in failure in the 2027 general election.”
