Osun 2026: Aregbesola, political family dump APC
In a statement signed by Abosede Oluwaseun, the group’s Organising and Publicity Secretary, the decision to pull out of the APC was a consensus by stakeholders after a session ratifying the earlier resolution of members from the 332 wards of Osun at its monthly meeting in Ilesa on Sunday.
Some of the reasons adduced for the resolution, the statement revealed, included ostracisation from the party, suspension and expulsion of the tendency’s leaders without fair hearing, and continuous denigration of the structure, among others.
“The members were put to a voice vote by the leadership of the fold where they affirmed their readiness to switch allegiance to another political camp ahead of the 2026 governorship election in the state.”
Addressing members of the tendency, immediate-past Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola commended them for their commitment and steadfastness to the principles of character, integrity and good governance.
Aregbesola, while affirming the resolution, noted that it was time to work aggressively for the success of Omoluabi Progressives and its vision to entrench good governance in Osun.
He also assured that in no distant time, the results of ongoing efforts by the leadership of the tendency to properly position it for the task ahead would materialize.
Aregbesola said, “I am indeed happy that all of you have spoken with one voice. It is not just one voice but a united front to lead the way to our collective victory in the journey ahead.
“I wish to remind you that the journey we are embarking on now is to further raise the level of prosperity of our dear state through responsible leadership.
“The path we have toed is a smooth path, highly reassuring and full of good tides that will propel our dear state to greatness.
“Therefore, you must show more commitment and attract genuine people who are ready to walk this path of righteousness with us.

“We are open to all regardless of political, religious, or socio-cultural leanings. We have the numbers, strength, and political acumen to provide a leadership that will make Osun the toast of its peers. By the grace of God, we shall succeed.”
Earlier in his remarks, Chairman, Omoluabi Progressives, Alhaji Azeez Adesiji thanked members for their consistency.
