Oyo Rising Citizens Forum (ORCF), a civil society group, has congratulated Senator Sharafadeen Alli as he received his Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) nomination certificate and on the unveiling of Hon. Adesoji Michael Adedeji as his running mate.
In a press statement signed by Aderemi Adebisi and Owolabi Salam, the group said the official presentation of the INEC nomination certificate to Senator Sharafadeen Alli has laid to rest speculation over who truly won the party’s recent primary election in the state.
The group, therefore, called on all aggrieved aspirants in elective positions to sheathe their swords, set aside their differences, and work together for the party’s success in the 2027 elections.
“In any elective contest, someone will always emerge victorious. As a group committed to the development of Oyo State, we use this medium to appeal to all aspirants who contested for any position to embrace the spirit of sportsmanship and work together for the overall success of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State.”
The group added that Oyo State deserves better than the current situation under Governor Seyi Makinde and said Senator Sharafadeen Alli is better equipped to lift the state out of its present leadership quagmire.
ORCF stressed that Senator Sharafadeen Alli, the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate in Oyo State, is a man of integrity and a grassroots politician who will bring succour to the people of the state.
