APC national chairman Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda says the All Progressives Congress (APC) will win the Osun State governorship election on August 15, 2026. Speaking at the inauguration of the APC National Campaign Council, he expresses confidence that “nothing will stop” the party from taking over Government House in Osun. Both reports describe his remarks as part of broader efforts to position the APC for subsequent national politics, with the Osun election framed as an important step toward the 2027 general elections.
Yilwatda names Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO) as the APC’s candidate for the governorship poll and says the party’s political structure and capacity give it an advantage. He also indicates that APC governors, members of the National Assembly, local government chairmen, and other stakeholders will be mobilised to support the campaign. The reports further state that the party plans to intensify grassroots engagement across Osun to rally voters and strengthen support ahead of the election.
