A prominent member of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Farouk Aliyu, has revealed that the party's members and supporters were overly confident during the Osun State governorship election. Aliyu claimed that some APC members believed the federal government would ensure the party's victory, leading them to underestimate Governor Ademola Adeleke and his supporters.
This overconfidence, according to Aliyu, was a contributing factor to the party's loss in the election. He explained, "Yes, there were sentiments, and members of our party, I think, also had an overkill. Some thought that probably the federal government would come and just drive everybody and write the results." Aliyu also criticized Senator Francis Fadahunsi for making a threatening remark, stating, "I don’t understand Yoruba that much, I think what he did was very wrong, for coming out to say 'kill'."
