Chief Niyi Aborisade, a seasoned human rights activist and member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), has thrown his hat into the ring, declaring his intention to contest for the Oyo State governorship seat in 2027. With over 30 years of experience advocating for good governance, Aborisade is confident that he has the structures, financial muscle, and quality leadership to move Oyo State forward and make it one of the best in the world.
Addressing journalists in Ibadan, Aborisade disclosed he has what it takes to move Oyo State forward if elected.
Chief Aborisade claimed he has better chances to emerge as Governor considering his structures across the 33 local governments of the state.
In his words: “I’ve been in different places in the world and I’ve seeing how they are running their government. Oyo state shouldn’t lack some certain things.
“I’ve been a human right activist for more than 30 years, and I’ve been clamouring for good governance, now, it time for me to bring the good governance to the people of Oyo State.
“I’m going to change things positive, this is the time for positive change for the good people of Oyo State.
“I’m going to emerge, I’m the only candidate that has structures across the 33 local government of Oyo state, no one has done what I have done. I won’t be a social media governor because I have physical structures across the Oyo State. I have better chance out of all the aspirants.”
While asked if he has the backing of Governor Seyi Makinde, Aborisade said the Governor will announce him as the flag bearer of the party in due time, adding he is better qualified than most of the aspirants.
“I have the financial muscle to contest with anybody, I have the quality and financial backing, I will be next governor of Oyo state come 2027, people of the state should wait for good and better governance, they should wait for positive change,” he concluded.
