In a significant development ahead of the 2027 Oyo State APC governorship primary, the National Screening Committee has received a petition challenging Senator Sarafa Ali’s candidacy.
The petition has raised concerns about Ali’s recent elevation to the status of an Oba, as he is reportedly a member of the Olubadan in council.
The concerned youth wing of the Oyo APC, through their legal counsel, has expressed apprehensions regarding the potential political ramifications of Ali’s gubernatorial aspiration.
They have highlighted the importance of avoiding a repeat of the controversial political scenario witnessed in Zamfara State, where intra-party disputes led to litigation and chaos.
The petition underscores a critical moment for the Oyo APC as it prepares for the upcoming elections, raising questions about the eligibility and implications of political figures holding dual roles in the community.
As the situation unfolds, the party must navigate the legal and political landscape to ensure a united front ahead of the primaries.
Further developments are awaited as the National Screening Committee reviews the petition and makes its determination.
