Omisore declares interest in 2026 Osun governorship under APC
Iyiola Omisore, former deputy governor of Osun, has declared his intention to contest the 2026 governorship election in the state on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Omisore made the announcement on Saturday via his official X handle, adding that a formal declaration will hold on October 7, 2025, at the APC secretariat in Osogbo, the state capital.
The event, themed ‘Fix the Broken, Restore Our Dreams’, will mark the beginning of what he described as the ‘Osun Rescue Mission 2026’.
Omisore, who represented Osun east senatorial district from 2003 to 2011, said his ambition is rooted in restoring hope and strengthening governance in the state.
“This is not just my mission, it is a collective one. I believe strongly that together, we can restore hope, strengthen governance, and deliver a brighter future for every son and daughter of Osun,” he wrote.
He urged party members and citizens to attend the event and support his vision for the state.
