APC Stalwart Funmilayo Fagboyo Hails Oyebanji’s Re-election, Calls for Sustained Support.

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Usi of Osi-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Pharm. Mrs Rachel Funmilayo Fagboyo, has congratulated Governor Biodun Oyebanji on his resounding victory in the just-concluded governorship election in the state.

In a statement made available to journalists on Monday, Fagboyo described the election as peaceful, credible and a true reflection of the collective will of the Ekiti people.

She commended residents of the state for their orderly conduct before, during and after the poll, noting that their commitment to peace and democratic values contributed significantly to the success of the election.

According to her, the outcome of the election is a clear indication of the confidence reposed in Governor Oyebanji by the people and a validation of the administration’s performance over the last three and half years.

Fagboyo noted that the governor’s victory across the 16 local government areas and 177 wards of the state was unprecedented in Ekiti’s political history, describing it as evidence of the widespread acceptance of his policies and programmes.

“This victory is historic and richly deserved. Ekiti people have once again demonstrated their appreciation for Governor Oyebanji’s developmental strides by renewing his mandate. It is a testament to the trust and confidence they have in his leadership,” she said.

The APC stalwart attributed the governor’s overwhelming victory to achievements recorded in critical sectors, including infrastructure, education, healthcare, agriculture, youth empowerment, social welfare and workers’ welfare.

She further stated that Oyebanji’s inclusive approach to governance, which emphasises stakeholder engagement, consultation and equitable distribution of development projects, has endeared him to people across political, religious and social divides.

Fagboyo expressed optimism that the governor’s second term would provide an opportunity to consolidate ongoing projects and introduce new initiatives aimed at accelerating economic growth and improving the standard of living of residents.

“The governor has consistently demonstrated a commitment to people-centred governance and has remained focused on policies that improve the welfare of citizens in both urban and rural communities.

“He has justified the confidence reposed in him through his remarkable performance in office. With this renewed mandate, I am confident that he will build on his achievements, expand opportunities for our people and deliver even greater dividends of democracy across Ekiti State.

Fagboyo also called on residents to continue supporting and praying for the governor as he embarks on another four-year term, stressing that the success of governance requires the cooperation and goodwill of all stakeholders.

The pharmacist further appealed to Ekiti residents to sustain their support for the APC and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general elections, noting that stronger collaboration between the state and the Federal Government would create additional opportunities for growth and economic advancement.

She specifically appreciated members of APC in Osi Ward and residents across the state for their peaceful conduct throughout the electoral process, describing their maturity and democratic consciousness as exemplary.

Fagboyo prayed for divine wisdom, strength, good health and guidance for Governor Oyebanji as he begins another term dedicated to advancing the growth, prosperity and overall development of Ekiti State.
