Ekiti 2026: Continuity of Good Governance Is Catalyst for Development, Prosperity ~OSV.

The Oyebanji Street Vanguard (OSV), a prominent grassroots political movement in Ekiti State, has reaffirmed its unwavering support for the continuity of good governance exemplified by Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji’s administration till 2030, describing it as the only path to sustained progress, development, and prosperity in the state.

In a statement issued on Wednesday to newsmen in Ado-Ekiti, the Convener of the group, HC Ade, called on all citizens and party faithful to massively support Governor Oyebanji’s bid in 2026, stressing that the governor’s track record of achievements makes him the right leader among the list to drive Ekiti to greater heights.

“Governor Oyebanji has delivered beyond expectations. From major infrastructure projects to grassroots development, he has shown what visionary and committed leadership looks like. BAO till 2030 stands for continuity, progress, development, and prosperity in Ekiti,” the group said.

Reacting to the development news on the completed Ekiti State Cargo Airport, which was recently approved by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) for full commercial flight operations, the group described the project as a major economic breakthrough for the state under Governor Oyebanji’s watch.

“This is a landmark achievement for Ekiti people. The Cargo Airport is not just a project; it is a gateway to new opportunities in commerce, agriculture, logistics, and tourism. It will create jobs, open up markets, and place Ekiti on the national and global map. Only a government with foresight and sincerity can deliver such a milestone,” the group noted.

They stressed that such achievements underscore the need for continuity in leadership, stating that no other aspirant or political interest can match the credibility, stability, and developmental focus that BAO brings to the table.

The group also cautioned party members and the public to remain vigilant and ignore any misleading information or rumour being circulated by what they described as “regular other aspirants' media teams,” who, according to them, are bent on sowing seeds of discord within the party and among progressive people in the state.

“Propaganda, innuendos, fake and unsubstantiated news, falsehood, fabrications, etc., are usually willing weapons in the hands of any weak aspirant or political party in a period like this when election is at hand.

Whereas, it is obvious that all party leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the ward level to Abuja are fully in support of BAO's continuity till 2030,” they affirmed.

The group urged party faithful to remain united, focused, and loyal, applauding Governor Oyebanji for his inclusive leadership and genuine relationship with stakeholders at all levels.

 “BAO is not just a performing governor, he is a true party man. He has stood by all members, from the grassroots to the national level, with love, humility, and unwavering commitment. He is the only Omo Ologo capable of taking Ekiti and our great party to greater heights,” he added.

The group — OSV — reiterated their commitment to sustained grassroots mobilization across all the nooks and crannies of the 16 local government areas in the state, assuring that it will work tirelessly to ensure overwhelming victory for BAO in the 2026 elections and beyond.

As the 2026 political calendar draws near, the group noted that the reality and imperative of continuity of good governance, anchored on the platform of political stability, is no doubt the clear path to economic development and progress for the state.
