All three Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senators representing Osun State, in a surprising political realignment, have thrown their weight behind President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid, endorsing him as their sole presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.
The endorsement was made under the banner of the Osun State Senators’ Caucus of the PDP.
In a joint statement issued in Abuja, Senators Kamarudeen Lere Oyewumi (Osun West), Olubiyi Fadeyi Ajagunla (Osun Central), and Francis Adenigba Fadahunsi (Osun East) affirmed their collective and unalloyed support for President Tinubu’s continued leadership.
Their declaration followed a strategic meeting where the senators unanimously agreed to back Tinubu for a second term, saying the president’s achievements in infrastructure and the economy as key drivers of their decision.
Highlighting improvements in food prices and national security, the lawmakers said they are proud to represent a constituency that supports what they described as Tinubu’s “visionary leadership.”
The senators stated, “This overwhelming endorsement goes beyond mere symbolism; it is a clear reflection of genuine confidence and satisfaction with President Tinubu’s delivery of democratic dividends. There is no credible opposition within our ranks, the entire Osun Central stands resolutely united behind this historic decision.”
They further urged the president to maintain his commitment to progressive governance and continue steering the country toward greater development.
