APC chieftains in Osun State urge party members to learn from the party’s recent governorship election defeat and reposition for the 2027 general elections. In separate but aligned remarks, leaders tell APC members that the setback should be treated as a lesson for future strategy rather than a basis for internal blame.
The Punch reports an APC chieftain advising members to “turn defeat into victory” and explicitly linking that push to support for the political direction associated with President Bola Tinubu. Daily Post Nigeria similarly quotes an Osun APC figure, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, who speaks with journalists in Osogbo and calls for converting the governorship loss into momentum toward Tinubu’s 2027 electoral bid. While both accounts stress internal learning and renewed campaigning, they differ mainly in the specific speaker named and the framing of how closely the Osun effort should align with Tinubu’s 2027 prospects.
