APC will takeover from PDP in Oyo State come 2023 as political heavyweights set to join Progressive Family – Alao-Akala

Former Governor of Oyo state and Chairman, Elders Advisory Council for Oyo State All Progressives Congress (APC), oyo state, has described the ongoing registration and re-validation of membership excercise of the progressive party as impressive with the huge turnout witnessed within the first two days of commencement of the programme

Otunba Alao-Akala made this assertion shortly after revalidating his membership of the party at his Sabo/Taara ward 10, Olukotun compound polling unit in ogbomoso North local government area of Oyo state in company wife Chief (Mrs.) Oluwakemi Alao-Akala and other family members.

According to the former Governor, while addressing party faithfuls gathered at the registration centre, “Your unprecedented turnout for this membership registration and re-validation excercise tells a lot about your readiness and willingness to stand with the party come rain, come shine”

“You have willingly come out to identify with the APC without any form of inducement or coercion and which is a pointer to the fact that our great party is acceptable across all divides”

“Let me now shock you, all  things being equal and without mincing words, APC will be in power in Oyo state before 2023. And come 2023, we will still be in power God willing. I won’t go into details more than this but I tell you, we are putting finishing touches to the process to make it a reality”.

“In the next couple of days, you will see new faces and new movements amongst us, welcome them with open hands, make them comfortable, it is part of the process.

Don’t fight anybody, let the process go on smoothly, don’t feel intimidated by their coming. Let us gladly recieve them into the APC fold. Since the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) does not appreciate being in power, we will take it away from them.

You know we operate an all-encompassing and open door policy. And being the ruling party at the National level, the best thing for us is to make sure Oyo state is also an APC state and this will soon become a reality”
