Oyetola Denies Interference in Disqualification of Osun APC Aspirants

Former Osun State Governor Adegboyega Oyetola has refuted claims of influencing the disqualification of several APC governorship aspirants in Osun State for the 2026 elections. The disqualification, including that of former Deputy Governor Benedict Alabi and others, was allegedly due to inconsistencies in nomination documents.

Oyetola's camp firmly denies the accusations, emphasizing the independence of the screening process. The aspirants accused Oyetola of meddling in the exercise, but his team insists on fair and transparent due process.

The situation has led to tensions within the party ahead of the primaries.
