Oyebamiji will deliver if elected Osun governor, says APC

The Ijesa South Federal Constituency Campaign Council of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is gearing up for the upcoming governorship election in Osun State, expressing a strong conviction that their candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, will secure victory. The council chairman, Femi Kujembola, articulated a narrative of renewed hope and a promise of good governance, directly contrasting it with the perceived shortcomings of the incumbent administration.

“

As you can see from the above ‘Theme’, we are beginning this the vision and resilience of our journey with a profound belief in candidate, Alhaji Bola Oyebamiji, AMBO, to deliver qualitative administration and good governance for the good people of Osun State, and a better future for our children.

Kujembola's statements, as reported by The Punch, reflect a party determined to reclaim power after what they termed an 'unfortunate' loss in 2022. The APC's messaging centers on the idea that the current government has failed to deliver meaningful dividends to the state, suggesting that the democratic process has suffered setbacks. This framing positions the APC as the viable alternative, ready to correct perceived errors and steer Osun State towards progress.

“

It is now very obvious to the good people of Osun State that the unfortunate outcome of the 2022 governorship election did not bring any meaningful and favourable dividends to the state as expected.

The campaign council is banking on the electorate's desire for change and their own renewed determination. They acknowledge past 'mistakes' but emphasize lessons learned, promising to meet the people's needs through 'pragmatic and egalitarian development projects.' The council also highlighted the performance of their local government chairmen as evidence of their capacity to deliver effective administration, even in opposition. This narrative aims to resonate with voters seeking tangible improvements and a return to what they might perceive as a more prosperous past under APC leadership.

“

We are eager to come back to power to offer positive change and desired renewed hopes. We have had our mistakes, we have learned our lessons, we are determined to meet the needs of our people when we return to power through pragmatic and egalitarian development projects.

Bola Oyebamiji is presented as a candidate of 'great vision' and 'impeccable character,' whose mission for good governance is shaped by his experiences and values. The APC's strategy appears to be a combination of critiquing the present administration and showcasing their candidate as the embodiment of competence and integrity, poised to restore Osun State's progress.

“

We know we can do better, because in the past three years, we have offered not just opposition but alternative government through local administration. Despite all attempts to scuttle the local government system through frivolous litigations, our Council Chairmen have provided necessary reliefs, and robust succors in each local government.
