The Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, has declared that members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Osun State remain confident of victory as preparations continue for the 2026 governorship election in the state.
The former Osun State governor made the remarks on Friday in Iragbiji, Osun State.
Addressing party supporters, Oyetola said the APC remained determined to regain control of the state government, stressing that preparations were already underway ahead of the election.
“We are prepared for the contest ahead. By the grace of God, we will vote and we will win,” Oyetola said.
He urged party members and residents not to be troubled by political developments in the state, assuring them that the party would remain focused on its mobilisation efforts.
According to him, “There is no cause for alarm. We are confident that with the support of the people, victory will come our way.”
The minister also used the occasion to call for support for the administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He noted that ongoing economic and social reforms by the Federal Government required collective backing from citizens.
He said Nigerians should rally around the leadership at the centre to help achieve national development goals and ensure the success of programmes designed to strengthen the country’s economy.
Oyetola also encouraged eligible residents in Osun State to participate in the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration exercise conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and described voter registration as a civic responsibility.
