APC Oyo State Denies Candidate Selection for 2027 Election

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State has officially stated that it has not yet chosen a candidate for the upcoming 2027 governorship election. Comrade Olawal Sadar, representing the party, described media reports suggesting that a candidate has been selected as false and unnecessary.

The APC reassured its members that it will strictly adhere to democratic procedures when the time is appropriate for candidate selection. The party has not yet begun to receive letters of intent from individuals wishing to contest, indicating that it is premature to conduct any activities related to candidate selection.

The APC urged its members and the general public to disregard speculative stories and emphasized its commitment to following the rules outlined in the nation's electoral act. The party's congress is set to take place at a national convention in Abuja over the weekend, marking a significant moment in its organizational activities.
