Tijani Hails APC Nat’l Chair, Ganduje’s Visit to Oyo State
In a significant political development, Barrister Opeyemi Tijani has voiced his appreciation for the visit of Dr. Umar Abdullahi Ganduje, the chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), to the Oyo State party secretariat. This visit, part of an official tour to the state, saw Dr. Ganduje accompanied by the National Secretary, Dr. Ajibola Bashiru. Tijani hailed the visit as a much-needed and warmly received event.
Tijani, a prominent lawyer and politician hailing from Ibarapa, expressed immense satisfaction in hosting Dr. Ganduje in Oyo State. He emphasized that Oyo State holds a pivotal position as the political epicenter of progressivism. According to Tijani, Dr. Ganduje’s presence underscores the enduring significance of the APC in the state, dispelling any notions of abandonment that may have circulated.
During his address, Tijani echoed Dr. Ganduje’s call for unity within the party. He extended a heartfelt appeal to both the party’s leadership and its members, urging them to come together in the spirit of unity, aiming to revitalize the party’s influence and prominence.
“As a political party, it is imperative that we unite as one cohesive force,” Tijani asserted. “The onus is on both our leadership and dedicated members to align their goals, harkening back to the fundamental principles of progressivism, where unity serves as the linchpin. Divided efforts will not yield the desired results; to regain our standing as the dominant political force in Oyo State, we must operate as an indivisible, unwavering, and unified entity.”
Tijani’s words resonated with party loyalists and underscored the importance of solidarity in achieving the APC’s objectives within the state. This visit by Dr. Ganduje and Tijani’s call for unity are anticipated to breathe new life into the party’s aspirations in Oyo State.
