Oyetola, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and a former Osun State governor who was defeated by Adeleke in 2022, addressed an APC rally in Osogbo, the state capital. He urged Osun residents to vote for the APC candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, in Saturday's ballot. Oyetola stated, \"I believe today is a day of joy, and we are thankful that it arrived alive and well. You can see how our party is. The APC has supporters who have abandoned their final rally due to thoughtlessness; now, let us ensure that Oyebamiji receives your votes.\" He emphasized, \"On Saturday, who will you cast your ballot for? Compare the candidates from both sides, and if you close your eyes, who would you choose? Since time is limited, let us remember that voting on Saturday is essential for all of us. For those eligible to vote, ensure you bring your card to the polling station and seek out the broom insignia. Thump the button for the one marked with a broom, and by God's grace, we will all laugh on Saturday, while they will weep when the voting concludes.\"",
