Osun 2026: PDP, APC Brace for Showdown as Political Activities Gather Momentum

The upcoming 2026 gubernatorial election in Osun State is set to be a showdown between the ruling People Democratic Party (PDP) and the main opposition Progressives Congress (APC). Both parties are confident in their popularity and ability to win the election, which is scheduled for August 2026.

The Director of Media for the PDP expressed optimism in their chances, while the APC Director of Media highlighted the party's growing strength, especially with key figures defecting from the PDP. Political analysts believe that despite the efforts of the opposition, the incumbent party in Osun State will likely strive to win the election.

The APC's track record in the state is seen as a justification for their work in administration. The political landscape is heating up as the election approaches, with both parties gearing up for a fierce competition.
