A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress APC, and leading aspirant in the 2026 governorship election, Bola Oyebamiji says the Friday’s ruling delivered by the Court of Appeal in Akure is a strong revalidation of the court’s earlier judgment reinstating local government chairmen elected under the platform of the APC.
Bola Oyebamiji however cautioned the Osun state government against using Amotekun Corps to forcefully take-over the local government structures on Monday.
In a statement, Bola Oyebamiji, warned that the misleading commentary allegedly being shared by the handlers of Governor Ademola Adeleke is capable of inciting the public against the duly elected local government executives who since February have been conducting the affairs of the local councils following the judgement of 10th February, 2025, which backed their return to office.
According to the statement, the ruling was strictly about relisting procedure and had nothing to do with the judgement of February 10 which ordered the return of the APC-led chairmen to the local council.
While commending members of the APC in Osun for their maturity and good conduct in the face of provocation, Bola Oyebamiji assured them that no forces, political or otherwise, can clinch the local government affairs from the duly reinstated APC chieftains.
He also urged the State Governor to ensure the State is not set on needless violence as experienced on the 17th of February, 2025 when the former Chairman of Irewole Local Government, Remi Abass was murdered in broad daylight.
