The Osun State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, Governor Ademola Adeleke and other political leaders have inaugurated a 10,000-member door-to-door canvassing team to mobilise support for the re-election of President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general election.

The inauguration, held at the Nelson Mandela Freedom Park, Osogbo, brought together prominent political figures across party lines, including APC leaders, members of Adeleke-led administration and representatives of the Niger Delta political bloc, in a demonstration of their commitment to building a broad-based coalition to secure a second term for President Tinubu.

The Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola while addressing the gathering noted the inauguration is a demonstration of commitment, organisation and shared conviction in President Bola Tinubu’s continuity agenda.

Oyetola who was represented by the 2026 Osun State APC guber candidate, Asiwaju Bola Oyebamiji, commended High Chief Oweizide Ekpemupolo (Tomopolo), for supporting the initiative for his nationwide advocacy for re-election of President Tinubu.

He said “There is no doubt that the presidential campaign of President Tinubu is highly visible and increasingly gaining momentum across the Southwest. This gives us an enormous responsibility to ensure that the Southwest delivers overwhelming votes for our leader, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the forthcoming general election.

“I am particularly impressed by the massive mobilisation of the APC structure for today’s inauguration. Our target of mobilising 1.5 million votes for President Tinubu in Osun is achievable if we approach the assignment with unity, discipline and determination.”

He encouraged Nigerians, irrespective of their political affiliations, to identify with the continuity agenda of President Tinubu by contributing meaningfully well to the success of his re-election.

He tasked the canvassers, saying, “I charge you to approach this assignment with sincerity, discipline and an unwavering commitment to the cause. Shun hypocrisy, political pretence and complacency.”

Also, Adeleke who was represented by his deputy, Kola Adewusi, tasked Accord Party, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members and his supporters to forget past disagreements and unite to deliver for the president.

Also, the National Coordinator of PBAT Door-to-Dooor, Comrade Sunday Adekanbi, encouraged voters to collect their PVC and deliver the state’s two million votes for President Tinubu irrespective of political party affiliation.

The Managing Director of Tantita Security Service Nigeria Limited Representing Government Owoizidei Ekpemupolo or Oweizidei Thomas Ekpemupolo), Dr. Kestin Pondi, said “We are not just coming to inaugurate, we are also bringing to you 30 campaign vehicles mounted with speakers and generators and amplifiers to make the campaign work very easily.

“Our message to you today is simple, Its to come and join you in Osun, We know that President Bola Tinubu is Osun and Osun is President Bola Tinubu. We have come to you today to inaugurate the PBAT door-to-door movement Osun State Chapter.

“We believe in the man’s reformation agenda and we believe that the man is what Nigeria needs at this point in time. Our economy is stable. People are now coming to invest in Nigeria as against why people were removing their money from Nigeria before he assumed office.”

“We know that you are already going to vote for the man who is moving Nigeria forward. But what we are going to tell you is that we don’t want your vote to be less than 90%. We want you to give him as much as the votes you have. If you can’t give him 100%, don’t let them go below 90%. That’s why we are in Osun State today.”

The State Coordinator of the movement, Rtr. Amb. Adeolu Olanrewaju, assured its national leadership not disappoint them by ensuring that all the doors in Osun are touched and every stakeholder will be convinced to vote for Tinubu.

The National Secretary of APC, Senator Ajibola Basiru highlighted the achievements of President Tinubu, from NELFUND loan, infrastructural drive, increased allocation, improved economy among others.
