Mrs Florence Ajimobi, widow of former Governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, has vowed that the ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the state in the 2027 general elections.
Mrs Ajimobi, an Ambassador-designate who also declared that the 2027 polls would be keenly contested, likened it to a “war” and insisted that the PDP “must go.”
The female chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State, made the declaration in a trending video on social media while addressing reporters at a political gathering.
She expressed unalloyed confidence in her party’s determination to challenge the PDP at the state level and wrest power from PDP’s Seyi Makinde, the Governor of the state.
“We’re going to war in 2027. It’s going to be a head-on war. PDP must go. Whatever they want to do, whatever tricks they want to try, all power belongs to God, but we are going to beg God and we are going to fight them,” she said.
She further asserted that her party has strong backing at the federal level, including financial and institutional support, which she said would counter any advantage held by the opposition at the state level.
“They have money in the state, we have money at the federal level. We have all the support we need. We are not going to be intimidated. So let them get ready for us. We are ready for them,” Ajimobi added.
