A former National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Senator Iyiola Omisore, has formally declared his intention to run for Governor of Osun State in the 2026 election.
Senator Omisore made the declaration at the APC state secretariat in Osogbo, surrounded by a massive crowd of party supporters and leaders from across the state.
He expressed confidence that he would win the party’s ticket in the primary election scheduled for December 15, 2025.
“I am expecting Osun State people to vote for APC en masse, come August 8, 2026,” Omisore stated.
He pointed to the large turnout as proof of his strong support from core APC members and their readiness to back his candidacy.
A former lawmaker at the event, Mr Ajibola Famurewa, endorsed Omisore as the most experienced candidate, citing his prior role as Deputy Governor.
“We are confident that with their support, Omisore will emerge as the party’s candidate and deliver victory,” Famurewa said.
Senator Omisore then urged his supporters to remain orderly during the primaries and promised that local campaign tours would soon begin.
