The camp of Senator Iyiola Omisore has called on supporters and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State to boycott the December 9 delegates’ election, describing the scheduled exercise as undemocratic and potentially damaging to the party’s unity ahead of the 2026 governorship poll.
This was contained in a statement signed by Hon Ajibola Famurewa, Director-General of the Osun Rescue Mission 2026.
The statement reads partly: “I wish to inform all the teaming All Progressives Congress party men and women most especially lovers of democracy and particularly supporters of all excluded aspirants for the December 13th governorship primaries in Osun State that the slated delegates primary election slated for the 9th December is undemocratic and therefore should be boycotted by all and sundry.
“This is because since the Screening Appeal Committee has not released its report which should open the door for the delegates election, the controversial delegate election will just be an attempt to tetun a pro Ambo supporters and delegates at the expense of others.
“Therefore, the camp of Senator Iyiola Omisore wishes to advise our supporters to stay away from the seemingly fraudulent exercise in order not to be a promoter and supporter of undemocratic plot to cause disaffection that could lead our party to failure at the poll come August 8th 2026.
“Let us all prepare for the December 13th primaries and take our party (APC) from the claws of destabilization being promoted by a few. Thank you.”
Beyond the cited excerpts, Famurewa argued that proceeding with the delegates’ election without the appeal committee’s report undermines internal democracy and risks polarising the party ahead of the crucial 2026 governorship election.
He maintained that the current process appears skewed in favour of a particular bloc within the APC, warning that such a path could weaken the party’s electoral fortunes if not urgently addressed.
The Omisore camp, therefore, urged party faithful to remain resolute, avoid what it termed a “compromised delegate exercise”, and focus on the December 13 governorship primaries, which it described as the legitimate platform for aspirants to test their popularity.
