A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State, Afeez Bolaji Repete, has obtained the party’s expression of interest and nomination forms to contest the Oyo Central Senatorial seat ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Repete, who confirmed picking up the APC Oyo Central Senatorial Form on April 30, 2026, described his ambition as a “deliberate and considered offer” built on years of experience, vision, and proven stewardship.
According to former Deputy National Youth Leader of the APC, the decision to run is not driven by personal ambition but by a genuine desire to serve the people of Oyo Central Senatorial District, both young and old.
He expressed optimism about the journey ahead and confidence in the support of party members and constituents, while urging fellow aspirants to prioritize unity and the collective interest of the APC.
Repete emphasized the importance of conducting a peaceful and issue-based contest, noting that party cohesion after the primaries would be more critical than individual victory.
“After the primary, our unity and togetherness will matter much more than who has the ticket,” he said.
He also appreciated the people of the district for their consistent support and prayers, assuring them of his commitment to faithful service and responsible representation if elected.
Repete reiterated that his guiding principle remains the trust reposed in leadership, adding that with unity and dedication, the party stands a strong chance in the forthcoming elections.
