The leadership of the Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) says the party is determined to return to government in the state in 2026.

The Osun APC Chairman, Tajudeen Lawal, who made the declaration at a stakeholders meeting in Osogbo, the state capital on Wednesday, June 7, said no effort would be spared to ensure the return of the party to power and continue its good and people-centric leadership.

Lawal, however, directed party officials across Osun State to resume meetings and other political activities in preparation for future elections.

He said the meeting which was held at the instance of the immediate past governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola, was aimed to bring together members of the APC with a view to chart a new course for the progress and success of the party and its members.

Lawal, who commended leaders and members of the party for their loyalty, resilience, perseverance, and commitment throughout the litigation period, said right mechanisms had been set in motion to properly and genuinely restructure the party for the betterment of all members.

According to him, the main motive behind the meeting was to restrategise and further foster unity between and among members of the party as they resolve to wrestle power from the incumbent government in the state.

Speaking on behalf of the party’s Elders Forum, popularly called ‘Agba Osun’, Kunle Odeyemi, said efforts would continue to be made to ensure the party remains united and formidable.

In their separate remarks, the immediate past Chairman of Ifedayo Local Government Area of Osun State, Biodun Idowu, extolled the APC members for their commitment throughout the “thin and thick period” just as he urged them to remain united “as the party is ready to return to government”.
