Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has advised the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Barrister Sharafadeen Alli, to channel his energy towards the 2027 governorship election rather than criticising his administration.
Makinde gave the advice at the Boye Nation/JAF Movement Mega Concert held at the Lekan Salami Stadium, Adamasingba, Ibadan.
The governor urged Alli to focus on his campaign and contest against the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) governorship candidate, Mr. Bimbo Adekanbi, instead of directing his attention towards attacking the state government.
Makinde also said that his administration’s performance in Oyo State would ultimately influence the choice of voters in the 2027 election.
The mega concert, themed “Young, United, Unstoppable (YUU),” also served as a platform for the formal reception of popular Ibadan-based political organiser, Mr. Ajiboye Akande Sangogade, popularly known as Boye Nation, and his supporters into the APM.
Sangogade, an ally of former Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, led thousands of his supporters from the APC into the APM at the event.
The colourful concert featured performances by Fuji stars, including Alhaji Taye Currency, Tiri leather, and Babatunmise, among other artistes.
The event was attended by prominent APM leaders, as well as the party’s governorship, deputy governorship, senatorial, House of Representatives and Oyo State House of Assembly candidates.
