APC Chairman Expresses Confidence in Party’s Victory Ahead of Ekiti Guber Poll
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nentawe Yilwatda, has expressed confidence that the party will win the forthcoming Ekiti State governorship election, citing Governor Abiodun Oyebanji’s performance and growing support among residents of the state.
Yilwatda made the statement in a post on X on Tuesday following his attendance at the APC mega rally in Ekiti State, which was also attended by Vice President Kashim Shettima, members of the National Working Committee, governors and other party leaders.
He said the large turnout at the rally demonstrated the governor’s popularity and acceptance across the state, noting that residents were eager to reward him with another term in office.
According to him, Governor Oyebanji had justified the confidence placed in him through notable achievements in road construction and rehabilitation, investment in education, and policies aimed at strengthening human capital development.
Yilwatda added that the administration’s impact was visible across Ekiti State, saying it had strengthened public trust and increased support for the governor.
He expressed optimism that the APC would secure victory in the election, attributing this to Oyebanji’s performance in office and the backing of the electorate.
“Governor Oyebanji has justified the confidence reposed in him by the people. Under his administration, critical roads have been constructed and rehabilitated, opening up communities and facilitating economic activities,” he said.
“He has created an enabling environment for students to learn and excel, while significant investments have been made in education and human capital development.
“Today, everywhere you turn in Ekiti, the evidence of good governance is visible. The people recognise what Governor Oyebanji has done, and they are proud of his achievements. That is why thousands gathered voluntarily to express their support and reaffirm their confidence in his leadership,” Yilwatda added.
