A governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, Omooba Dotun Babayemi, has pledged to support the party’s decision regarding its candidate for the upcoming 2026 governorship election.
Babayemi, along with six other aspirants, was disqualified from contesting in the primary election but had previously expressed intentions to seek redress.
In a press release signed by him and made available to journalists on Wednesday, he underscored his commitment to the party’s supremacy, which he emphasized during visits to political wards.
“The Osun State Chapter of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), has been in the news lately for issues surrounding the selection of our governorship candidate for the 2026 election,” Babayemi stated.

He highlighted his extensive outreach, having visited 299 out of 332 wards in the state, where he promoted President Bola Tinubu’s “Renewed Hope” message, saying “I made it clear at every location that the party remains supreme, and that I will abide by its decision on who represents us in 2026.
Babayemi acknowledged the party leadership’s efforts at both the national and state levels to resolve ongoing issues. “Under the wise guidance of our leader, President Bola Tinubu, the leadership has been working diligently to reach a workable resolution that will unify our party and enable us to regain power in Osun in 2026,” he said.
He reiterated his commitment to the principles of the progressives and emphasized that the goal of delivering good governance to the people of Osun outweighs individual aspirations.
“I am prepared to abide by the party’s resolutions concerning the 2026 governorship election, believing that the actualization of our shared goals of delivering good governance to our people supersedes any individual desires,” Babayemi said.
