Court Confirms Rotimi Arobo as APC Candidate for Owo/Ose

The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja dismissed six appeals on October 10, 2026, affirming Rotimi Arobo as the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the Owo/Ose Federal Constituency in Ondo State. The appeals contested the Federal High Court's ruling that recognized Arobo as the winner of the party's primary election held on May 16, 2026, where he secured the highest lawful votes.

Following the appellate court's decision, Arobo expressed appreciation to the Court and thanked APC leaders, members, supporters, and well-wishers for their support during the legal process. He emphasized the importance of unity among party members, urging them to respect the Court's decision and focus on strengthening the APC and serving the constituents of Owo and Ose.

Arobo called for reconciliation and cooperation, stressing that the party's common interests should take precedence over individual differences.
