In a statement released to Egalitarian Voice on Monday, May 11, 2026, Akin Oosa lauded Adekanmbi, who previously served as Commissioner for Finance under the late Governor Abiola Ajimobi, describing him as a visionary and grassroots-oriented leader.
According to Akin Oosa, Adekanmbi’s political experience, fiscal discipline, and deep connection with local communities make him a suitable candidate to build on the developmental strides recorded by Governor Makinde’s administration.
“The task of governing Oyo State requires someone who understands the pain of the common man and has the intellectual capacity to drive sustainable growth. Hon. Bimbo Adekanmbi embodies that,” Akin Oosa said.
He further called on political stakeholders, party faithful, and residents of Oyo State to rally behind the consensus arrangement, noting that it would reduce political tension and foster unity ahead of the 2027 polls.
