Oyo APC guber candidate Sharafadeen Alli names Yemi Aderibigbe as campaign DG
The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State, Senator Sharafadeen Alli, has named prominent grassroots politician and legal practitioner, Asiwaju Yemi Aderibigbe, as the Director-General of his campaign council.
Announcing the appointment in a statement issued on Tuesday, Alli said Aderibigbe was selected because of his proven track record of selfless service, effective grassroots mobilisation, and people-oriented leadership.
According to the APC candidate, Aderibigbe has built a strong reputation as a leader who remains closely connected to the grassroots, especially since his tenure as Chairman of Akinyele Local Government Area.
Alli added that Aderibigbe’s unwavering commitment to improving the lives of ordinary people and his extensive political experience make him well-suited to coordinate the campaign ahead of the Oyo State governorship election.
Alli, who currently represents Oyo South Senatorial District in the Senate, urged the new campaign Director-General to deploy his vast experience, proven leadership credentials and deep understanding of Oyo State politics to coordinate the party’s campaign activities.
He said, “Asiwaju Yemi Aderibigbe is one of the pillars of progressive politics in our dear state. He has made immense contributions to the political, social and economic development of Oyo State.
“He is a loyal party leader and bridge-builder whose unwavering commitment to party development and the mentoring of younger politicians remains exemplary.
“We have chosen him to lead, organise and mobilise members of our great party and the people of the state to work for the success of the APC at the polls.
“As an experienced administrator with an impeccable record of public service and a committed progressive, I am confident Aderibigbe’s leadership qualities will strengthen our party’s campaign.
“As a team player, I have no doubt that he will excel in this assignment by effectively coordinating the campaign council alongside other distinguished leaders and members of our great party.”
Aderibigbe previously served as Chairman of Akinyele Local Government Area and later as Special Adviser on Transport during the administration of the late Governor Abiola Ajimobi.
