Oloye Folarin, during the tour, paid homages to traditional rulers in Ibarapa Central LGA: Oba Jimoh Olajide Titiloye (Olu of Igboora Land), Oba Kinsley Onikola Oyelami (Onidere of Idere Land), Oba Jamiu Adedamola Badmus (Olu Aso of Igbole Land), Oba Olusanjo Ojo (Baba Aso of Igbole Land), Oba Fasasi Jinadu (Onisaganun of Saganun), Oba Samuel Adewuyi Adeleye (Onidofin of Idofin), Oba Moyotola Ajibode (Adele Onipako of Pako) and Chief Adepoju Godwin Olaoye (Jagun Of Idere Land).

According to him, ”We must give prominence to peace and unity in APC in line with the provision of the party’s constitution. There must not winner-take-all in the forthcoming ward, local and state congresses of our great party”

He explained that, no member is greater than the party, that was main reason behind the recently concluded APC membership registration and revalidation exercise.

He advised members to imbibe the culture of togetherness and collective fight to achieve common goal, which is to dislodge the misruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State.

The three-term lawmaker while reiterating his absolute commitment to unity, growth and success of APC in the 2023 elections, urged party leaders to massively mobilise the yet-to-be registered eligible Nigerians for the ongoing INEC physical voter registration exercise.

While speaking further, Folarin reiterated his absolute commitment to help expanding the membership base of the APC in Oyo State.

“To dream or insinuate that I’ll dump APC for PDP that is in vegetative state is laughable. The continuous exodus of PDP governors, senators, house of reps members, state honourables and other gladiators into the progressive family shows that PDP is under intensive care unit, awaiting to be certified dead ahead of funeral ceremony in May 2023”.

“Only a dying politician will consider joining or staying in PDP. I am a living politician and will remain in APC. I strongly advise all frustrated members from other political parties to join us (APC) before it is too late. The Progressive Door is open to all intending members. I must add that in a few weeks to come, we will welcome key leaders in Oyo PDP into APC”.

Oloye Folarin was well received by APC Zonal leaders in Ibarapa East and Ibarapa Central LGAs, which included Chief Jolaosho; former honourable commissioner for Information – Chief S.O Sanusi; former Ibarapa Chairman – Alhaji Olayide Abass; former chairman, Oyo State Management Board – Alhaji Kaseem Jinadu; overall APC leader in Ibarapa North LGA- Chief Tunji Aderenle; former executive chairman, Ifeloju LCDA – Alhaji Rafiu Ojegoke; former member of House of Reps – Hon.
