The governorship candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) for the 2026 Osun gubernatorial election, Hon. Adewale Adebayo, has reached out to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state for support.
This move comes amid the reported defection of Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed and loyalists of Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde to the APM.
Adebayo noted that the political realignment of the former chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum and others into his party is a sign that the APM possesses a strong ideology.
He stated that many Nigerians now see the party as a vehicle that will guarantee a better country and breed a new generation of leaders.
Speaking during a stakeholders’ meeting with party leaders, supporters, and grassroots canvassers in Osogbo, the APM candidate charged mobilizers to build a united front to rescue Osun from what he described as failed leadership and internal political crises.
According to him, “The entry of Governor Bala Mohammed and Engr. Seyi Makinde’s loyalists into the APM demonstrates the confidence that credible political actors now repose in our party’s vision for purposeful governance, economic growth, youth empowerment, and people-oriented policies.”
He reiterated that the APM remains open to all progressive-minded individuals determined to enthrone responsive leadership in Osun State.
“I want to use this medium to call on the PDP structure in Osun State to support the APM in the forthcoming Osun gubernatorial election. The ex-chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum has shown the way, and Engr. Makinde is preparing to join,” he said.
The governorship hopeful further urged members of the PDP and other political parties to join the APM movement ahead of the 2026 election, insisting that the party has the capacity, structure, and grassroots support needed to secure victory at the polls.
“I am prepared to lead Osun to greater heights and ensure that the vision of our founding fathers comes to fruition. The APC and PDP have failed the state. The APM is fully prepared for governance and ready to be the game changer for the 2027 General Election,” Adebayo added.
He reaffirmed his commitment to running an issue-based campaign focused on development, transparency, job creation and improved welfare for the residents of the state.
