Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has predicted a landslide victory for the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) in the 2027 general elections. This prediction was made during a ceremony where Ajiboye Sangogade and other loyalists of Chief Adebayo Adelabu, a former Minister for Power, joined the APM in Ibadan. The event, themed "Young, United, Unstoppable (YUU)", was held at the Lekan Salami Sports Complex and featured hundreds of Adelabu's loyalists drawn from several local government areas across the state.
Sangogade, popularly known as Boye Nation and a Personal Assistant to Adelabu, led the group of loyalists into the APM. Makinde expressed confidence that the people of Nigeria were ready to vote for him and other APM candidates in the forthcoming general election. He criticized opposition parties for focusing on criticizing his administration instead of highlighting what their candidates would do differently for the growth of the state.
During the event, Makinde highlighted the qualifications of the APM governorship candidate in Oyo State, describing him as a graduate of Accounting and a professional who is also a Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. The governor urged his supporters to continue campaigning for the party and its candidates to emerge victorious across the country.
The ceremony featured a mega concert with electrifying performances by Fuji stars, including Alhaji Taye Currency and Alhaji Tiri Leather. The event was tagged "Boye Nation/JAF Movement Mega Concert" and showcased the APM's efforts to attract new members and build a strong support base in Oyo State.
Makinde's prediction of a landslide victory for the APM comes as the party seeks to expand its presence in Nigeria. The governor's confidence in the party's chances is boosted by the influx of new members, including Adelabu's loyalists, who are expected to contribute to the party's growth and success.
The defection of Adelabu's loyalists to the APM is seen as a significant boost to the party's chances in Oyo State. The move is also expected to strengthen the party's presence in the state and increase its competitiveness in the forthcoming general election.
As the 2027 general elections approach, the APM is positioning itself as a major player in Nigerian politics. With Governor Makinde at the helm and a growing support base, the party is confident of achieving a landslide victory and making significant gains in the country.
