Hon. Adegbite Isaac Adeeyo better known as Eyo, has congratulated Engr. Muftau Open Salawu on his emergence as the Deputy Governorship Candidate of the Allied People’s Movement (APM) for the 2027 Oyo State governorship election.
In a congratulatory message made available to journalists, Adeeyo described Salawu as an erudite engineer, pragmatic administrator, committed Muslim, community development advocate, and devoted family man whose emergence reflects his political relevance and longstanding contributions to society.
According to him, Salawu’s selection as the party’s deputy governorship candidate is a testament to his humanitarian interventions and commitment to the welfare of the people.
He noted that despite being a devoted Muslim, Salawu had demonstrated religious tolerance and inclusiveness through several philanthropic gestures, including the donation of a Toyota Sienna bus to the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Ogbomoso Zone.
Adeeyo further commended Salawu for personally funding the construction of several mosques across Ogbomoso and for his consistent financial support towards developmental projects in the community.
He said the emergence of Salawu as deputy governorship candidate is a positive development for the people of Ogbomoso Zone, describing him as a true son of the land with an unquestionable ancestral heritage.
“The good people of Ogbomoso have every reason to celebrate this development. Engr. Muftau Open Salawu has distinguished himself through selfless service, philanthropy, and unwavering commitment to community development,” he stated.
Adeeyo also expressed appreciation to Governor Seyi Makinde for what he described as the zoning of the strategic position to Ogbomoso Zone, noting that the gesture has further strengthened the political relevance of the area in Oyo State.
He expressed confidence that the APM governorship candidate, Hon. Bimbo Adekambi, would greatly benefit from Salawu’s wealth of experience, humility, and leadership qualities.
Adeeyo prayed for wisdom, strength, and success for the APM governorship ticket as preparations gather momentum ahead of the 2027 election.
