2027: Adekanmbi, Running Mate Open Salawu Continue APM Thank-You Tour, Rally Support Across Three Ibadan Federal Constituencies

The governorship candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) in Oyo State, Hon. Bimbo Adekanmbi, alongside his running mate, Engr. Muftau Open Salawu, has continued the party’s statewide thank-you tour with visits to the Ibadan North, Ibadan North-East and Ibadan South-East Federal Constituencies, urging members to sustain grassroots mobilisation ahead of the 2027 governorship election.

Addressing party leaders and supporters at the various stops, Adekanmbi described party members as the “foot soldiers” of the APM, stressing that their commitment and sacrifices would determine the party’s success at the polls.

“We know you are the foot soldiers and that is why we have come to you again to seek your support ahead of the 2027 election,” he said.

He urged members eligible to vote to remain steadfast and work tirelessly for the party across their respective local government areas, assuring them that their dedication would not go unrewarded.

“For those of you who will participate in the voting process, you will get rewards for your labour. Support the party to the last point in your different local government areas. The party is important, but forming the government is even more important, and that is why we must work together to emerge victorious,” Adekanmbi stated.

The APM governorship candidate also called for unity among members, particularly those who recently joined the party from other political platforms, noting that collective efforts and mutual respect would strengthen the party’s chances in the forthcoming election.

“We will do it together, and we will enjoy the harvest together. We should love and support one another, irrespective of the political parties we came from before joining APM. We must avoid actions capable of jeopardising the objectives of the party and remain committed to our responsibilities with sincerity and a positive mindset,” he said.

Adekanmbi assured party members that the concerns, requests and developmental proposals submitted by leaders from the various local government areas would receive careful attention.

He further expressed confidence that promises earlier made to party members would be fulfilled, reiterating the leadership’s commitment to rewarding loyalty and hard work.

The governorship candidate also commended Governor Seyi Makinde for what he described as a solid foundation and enduring legacy of governance in Oyo State, pledging to build on the developmental strides if elected in 2027.

According to him, the APM administration, if elected, would provide opportunities for loyal party members to contribute to governance through appointments into strategic positions, including commissioners and special advisers.

“It is within this party that commissioners and advisers will emerge. It is the party members who will enjoy the benefits of their commitment. Therefore, we must all ensure we vote and work for the success of our party,” he said.

Adekanmbi concluded by appreciating the party’s leadership, including the chairmen, vice-chairmen and members across the three federal constituencies, for their unwavering support and warm reception throughout the thank-you tour.

He expressed optimism that with sustained unity, discipline and grassroots mobilisation, the APM would record victory in the 2027 governorship election in Oyo State
