The African Action Congress, AAC, Oyo state chapter, has made a resounding call to the people of Oyo state, urging them to support the only party dedicated to serving the masses in the forthcoming local government election in the state.
The party called on the people of the state to rise up and vote for change, pledging to prioritize the needs of the people and work towards building a better future for Oyo state, Nigeria, and Africa.
Addressing a press conference on Saturday, Kayode Babayomi, the chairman of the party, emphasized the critical importance of the local elections.
He criticized other political parties for undermining the grassroots by imposing their lackeys and hindering development at the local level.
His words: “The local government is meant to be the closest government to the people.
“Our party is two bare hands showing that it is by our own deeds and work that we can build a new Oyo, Nigeria, and Africa. Rise up, Oyo! It is time to vote for the party that will put the people and humanity first!!”
Babayomi highlighted the party’s commitment to the people, noting that AAC candidates emerged based on their closeness to the grassroots and their dedication to serving the community.
He lamented the suffering of Nigerians under the governance of billionaire parties like APC, PDP, and LP, emphasizing the need for a change in leadership.
Also speaking, Femi Adeleye, the National Publicity Secretary of AAC, emphasized the party’s readiness for the elections.
“It is glaring and very obvious that we are the most prepared and organized party.” He said.
He ruled out any plans for violence and emphasized their candidates’ blueprints for development.
Speaking on the issues regarding the Police and OYSEIC, Adeleye said: “It is unfortunate today that the voters are not the ones that actually determine the election in Nigeria; it is the incumbent, the police, and the election body that determine. We hope that it will be different this time around. We are not going to put our eyes on the judiciary, but on these persons that I mentioned.”
He expressed concern over the role of incumbents, police, and election bodies in determining election outcomes, calling for transparency and fairness.
He urged voters to rally behind AAC, the party of the oppressed. He called on security agencies to refrain from disrupting the electoral process.
