The Imole Campaign Council has dismissed Christopher Imumolen's endorsement of Bola Oyebamiji, the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, stating that Imumolen is a factional leader of the Accord Party and his endorsement does not represent the party's position. The council emphasized that the officially recognized National Chairman of Accord, Maxwell Mgbudem, remains committed to Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke's re-election.
This decision came after Imumolen publicly endorsed Oyebamiji at an APC rally in Osogbo, claiming that Accord had withdrawn its support for Adeleke and directed members to vote for Oyebamiji. The Imole Campaign Council rejected this development, accusing the APC of presenting Imumolen as the party's national chairman. They noted that Mgbudem is the national chairman recognized by the Independent National Electoral Commission, not Imumolen.
The council urged voters to disregard the misleading narrative pushed by the opposition and maintained that Adeleke remains poised for victory in the upcoming Osun governorship election on August 15, 2026.
