Why I backed APC’s Oyebamiji over Adeleke — Oyinlola

Former Osun State Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola has explained his decision to back Bola Oyebamiji over incumbent Governor Ademola Adeleke in the recent election. Oyinlola cited the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) national crisis and perceived lack of consultation by Adeleke as reasons for his support for Oyebamiji. He also accused Adeleke's administration of favoring his hometown Ede with major government projects, spending 260.5 billion Naira in Ede out of 362 billion Naira spent on 20 projects.

Oyinlola emphasized that the PDP's failure to hold regular meetings and Adeleke's refusal to address these issues led him to withdraw support for the incumbent.
