Omisore Reflects on Political Future at 69th Birthday

On Tuesday, during a gathering in Osogbo organized by his allies to celebrate his 69th birthday, Senator Iyiola Omisore, the former national secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), expressed that he has entrusted his political future to God, stating, "What you should expect next depends on God’s plan for me." Hon. Ajibola Famurewa, one of Omisore's allies, attributed the APC's defeat in the August 15 governorship election to poor leadership and systemic failures within the party's state chapter. Famurewa emphasized the need for an immediate overhaul of the party structure to restore member confidence, criticizing the current leadership for fostering division through favoritism.

He highlighted the failure of party leaders to act on recommendations from an internal review committee led by Prof. Isaac Adewole. Famurewa called for leaders with the charisma to unite members and the strategic expertise to win elections, asserting that only such changes would yield positive results.
