A member of the House of Representatives representing Ibarapa East/Ido Federal Constituency of Oyo State, Engr. Aderemi Oseni, has said no political alliance, gang-up, or coalition can stop President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the 2027 general elections.
Oseni, who is of the All Progressives Congress (APC), said Tinubu remained unmovable and unshakable by any political scheming, pointing out that the President would continue in office beyond 2027 regardless of any opposition machinations.
The lawmaker stated this during the inauguration of the Remi Oseni Committee of Friends (ROCOF) Assembly Leaders across 33 local governments and wards in Oyo State in Ibadan, the state capital.
Oseni’s remarks came in response to the adoption of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) by some opposition leaders to unseat Tinubu in 2027.
Members of the coalition include former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate Peter Obi, ex-Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai, former Senate President David Mark, former Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi, John Odigie-Oyegun, former Osun Governor Rauf Aregbesola, and a host of others.
Oseni maintained that ROCOF’s unwavering support for Tinubu in the state and the president’s uncommon leadership would guarantee his victory.
The lawmaker also vowed that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will wrest power from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State in 2027, pledging to lead the charge to ensure the APC produces the next governor of the state.
Oseni said: “We are taking over power in Oyo State come 2027. APC will produce a governor for this state in 2027. I will lead the battle; it doesn’t matter if I become the governorship flag bearer of our party or not. I will be very active in the process; in fact, I will lead the battle that will ensure our dear party, the APC, returns to power in Oyo State.
“What I did in Ido/Ibarapa in the last election is more than enough to speak for me. I’m the only one in the whole of Oyo State that was not challenged in court after the election because of the magnitude—I mean size—of the number of votes I have. You dare not confront a lion. I’m the only person throughout the country that delivered all the polling units in my constituency for President Tinubu.
“Today I’m glad to say that ROCOF meeting is bigger than any other political party in this state. Go to Iseyin, go to all the geopolitical zones of the state and confirm this. ROCOF is the biggest. All the leaders of the party are in line with me. Out of ten leaders in the state, nine of them are here with us today. This shows that we are doing very well.
“Membership is open to all. In the ROCOF Family, our doors are wide open to individuals from all walks of life, regardless of their background. Whether you hail from a local neighbourhood, ward, local government area, federal constituency, senatorial district, state, or national level, we welcome and invite you to join us on this transformative journey.
“Our goal and objectives are to deliver Oyo State for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in 2027. Dear leaders, please note that our number one agenda, and indeed the cornerstone of our strategic direction, is grounded in the belief that a new Nigeria is possible, and graciously it is unfolding through President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s visionary Renewed Hope Agenda.
“I urge you not to see this as a mere political statement, but to embrace it as a declaration of partnership and support.
“We must rally behind our president and extend our hands in collaboration. We must acknowledge the brave steps President Tinubu has taken, notably the courageous decision to remove the fraudulent petrol subsidy. While it has caused temporary pain for many, it is a necessary sacrifice for a sustainable future.
“As President Tinubu himself stated, ‘To achieve greatness, one must be willing to endure temporary pain for future gain.’ This sacrifice opens doors to more significant investments in education, healthcare, and infrastructure—areas that demand our attention for longer-lasting change.
“This is a moment of transformation, a moment when Nigeria is rising from the ashes of the past and redefining itself for the better. We must support and partner with Mr. President in this transformative journey.”
