The Oyo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Friday formally inaugurated its newly elected State Executive Committee at the party’s secretariat in Oke Ado, Ibadan, marking a new phase of leadership and renewed political coordination within the party.
The inauguration ceremony brought together party leaders, stakeholders, and loyal members who gathered to witness the formal swearing in of the new executives charged with steering the affairs of the party across the state.
Former Deputy Governor of Oyo State, Moses Alake Adeyemo, officially assumed office as the Chairman of the party in the state alongside other members of the State Executive Committee. His emergence is widely seen within party circles as a strategic move aimed at strengthening unity and repositioning the party ahead of future political engagements.
Administering the oath of office, the APC South West Zonal Legal Adviser, Kolawole Majaro, charged the newly inaugurated executives to uphold the constitution of the party, promote internal democracy, and work collectively to advance the ideals and electoral fortunes of the APC in Oyo State.
The event signified the official commencement of duties for the new leadership, who are expected to provide strategic direction, consolidate party structures at the grassroots, and galvanize support across the state.
Party stakeholders at the ceremony expressed optimism that the new executive committee would strengthen cohesion among members, expand the party’s influence, and position the APC for greater political success in the state.
The inauguration ceremony concluded with renewed pledges of loyalty to the party and a commitment by the newly sworn in executives to work diligently toward building a more united and formidable APC in Oyo State.
The formal inauguration of the new state executives marks a significant milestone for the Oyo APC. Adeyemo’s leadership could bring a much-needed shift in political coordination and growth within the party.
