Oyo State APM Sets Stage for 2027 Election Campaign

The Allied People’s Movement (APM) in Oyo State is preparing to officially launch its campaign for the 2027 general elections this coming Saturday. According to reports from Channels Television, the event is scheduled to take place at the Durbar Stadium in Oyo Town, marking the beginning of the party’s formal outreach to the electorate.

Strategic Planning and Coordination

Dr. Nureni Adeniran, the Director-General of the APM Governorship and Presidential Elections Apex Campaign Council, announced the launch following a strategic meeting held in Ibadan. The session brought together the party’s campaign council and various candidates vying for elective offices under the APM banner. The primary goal of this meeting, as stated by Adeniran, was to align campaign strategies and ensure a unified approach across the state’s 33 local government areas.

The party leadership emphasized that they have already submitted their campaign timetable to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and are coordinating with security agencies to ensure the process remains orderly.

Focus on Policy and Continuity

A central theme of the upcoming APM campaign is the pledge to sustain the gains recorded during the administration of Governor Seyi Makinde. Dr. Adeniran noted that the party intends to run an issue-based and development-focused campaign. The leadership has explicitly distanced itself from political mudslinging, personal attacks, and violence.

“Our campaign will be entirely issue-based and fact-based. We are not going to engage in abusive language, mudslinging or any form of violence,” Dr. Adeniran stated.

The party aims to have voters evaluate its candidates based on three primary pillars:

• The party’s specific manifesto and policy proposals.
• The documented achievements of the current state administration.
• The political record and antecedents of Governor Seyi Makinde.

Vision for the Future

According to the source, the APM views the 2027 election as an opportunity to consolidate progress and expand economic and social opportunities within the state. Dr. Adeniran expressed confidence that the party’s focus on verifiable achievements and good governance would resonate with the public. He characterized the campaign as a mission to build a stronger future for all parts of Oyo State, rather than a pursuit of power for its own sake.

As the campaign season approaches, the APM is calling on its supporters across the state to attend the Saturday flag-off and subsequent rallies. While the party has outlined its intent to maintain synergy among its candidates and provide effective state-wide coordination, it remains to be seen how these strategies will translate into voter engagement as the election cycle progresses.

Conclusion

The APM’s upcoming campaign launch in Oyo Town signals the formal start of its 2027 electoral efforts. By prioritizing an issue-based platform and pledging to continue the policies of the current administration, the party is positioning itself as a vehicle for stability and growth. The success of this approach will depend on the party’s ability to maintain its internal coordination and effectively communicate its vision to the electorate in the months ahead.
