Ahead of the 2026 governorship election in Osun State, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has named a member of the House of Representatives representing Ijesa-North Federal Constituency, Hon. Wole Oke, as the Director General of its State Campaign Committee.
The party added that former Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Adebayo Adeleke, will serve as Director General for Osun Central Senatorial District, while former governorship aspirant, Dotun Babayemi, will coordinate Osun West. APC stalwart, Thomas Ogungbangbe, was named Director General for Osun East.
The party also constituted campaign committees across all federal constituencies, appointing chairmen, co-chairmen and secretaries to drive grassroots mobilization ahead of the August 15, 2026 governorship poll.
Speaking after his appointment, Oke, said Governor Adeleke to start preparing to leave the government house, stressing that he is a specialist in removing sitting governors.
Oke, a five-term federal lawmaker said “After thanking God, I want to sincerely thank our leaders for considering me worthy and i feel highly honoured. With my appointment as the Director General of the gubernatorial campaign of our party for the forthcoming 2026 governorship election, I want to say that from this moment, we have issued Governor Ademola Adeleke a quit-notice. It is an honour done to all members of our great party in Osun State and i want to assure you that what i am seeing before us is victory. You can take this home, what i am seeing before us is victory and from this moment on, Governor Ademola Adeleke should start packing his loads from Government House.
“Let me say this, when all of us were in PDP, we narrowly won with 28,000 votes in 2022 governorship election. With all the conspiracies that i was party to. Now, you can imagine that all of us that were party to that success have now moved to the APC. It is very clear that there is nothing anyone can do, you can not manufacture any magic. We are specialists at removing a sitting Governor. Take this to the bank, we are specialists, we have done this severally, we are good at removing a sitting Governor and i can tell you from this moment on, His Excellency, my own brother, Governor Ademola Adeleke should start packing his luggage out of the Government House”, he affirmed.
In his remarks, the APC governorship candidate, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, popularly called AMBO gave glory to Almighty God for the successful constitution of the campaign committees just as he charged every member of the party to begin massive mobilization and grassroots campaigns for the success and victory of the party come August 15th, 2026 gubernatorial poll.
“Let me first give glory to the Almighty God for giving us the privilege today as we have constituted our campaign structure, and we have equally committed everything unto the Almighty God to direct us well and i strongly believe that this journey has been committed unto Him and we are going to land very well. Yes, the structure is on ground now, I want to appeal to all our party members to key into the structure so that by 15th of August, 2026 we will deliver a governorship candidate of Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji as a Governor of Osun State”, Oyebamiji stated.
