Seyi Makinde Anticipates APM Victory in 2027 Elections
On September 22, 2026, Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde expressed confidence in a landslide victory for the Allied People’s Movement (APM) in the upcoming 2027 general elections. Speaking at the Boye Nation/JAF Movement Mega Concert at the Lekan Salami Sports Complex in Ibadan, he welcomed thousands of defectors from the All Progressives Congress (APC), led by Ajiboye Sangogade.
Makinde advised APC governorship candidate Barrister Sharafadeen Alli to focus on contesting against APM's Bimbo Adekanmbi rather than criticizing his administration. He labeled Alli as a mediocre lawyer and emphasized that the people of Oyo State would not allow regression.
Makinde also addressed criticisms regarding his use of diesel generators for streetlights, attributing the ongoing electricity issues to the APC-led Federal Government under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He reiterated that the APM's victory is assured, stating, “God has signed off on what we are doing, and that is why it is raining.”.
