A former lawmaker, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, has expressed confidence that the party’s governorship candidate, Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, will fulfil his campaign promises if elected.

Oyintiloye made the remarks in a statement on Thursday following a visit to the palace of the Alademure of Ibokun, Oba Festus Kayode Awogboro.

He reaffirmed the party’s commitment to delivering on its campaign pledges, noting that the APC remains focused on meeting the electorate's expectations to sustain public trust.

According to him, the party has consistently implemented people-oriented programmes and will continue on that path if given the mandate in the forthcoming governorship election.

He expressed optimism that Oyebamiji would honour all commitments made during the campaign period, describing the candidate as dependable.

Oyintiloye also used the opportunity to canvass support for the APC, urging residents to vote in large numbers for the party to strengthen its ability to address community needs through government interventions.

“While I appreciate the opportunity given to me to represent the good people of Obokun, I must say emphatically that Oyebamiji will fulfil all his campaign promises,” he said.

Oyintiloye also highlighted projects executed during his tenure, describing them as evidence of his commitment to development in the constituency.

He listed the refurbishment of a police armoured personnel carrier and the reconstruction of the Ibokun roundabout among efforts aimed at improving security and infrastructure.

Other projects, according to him, included renovating the ancient palace, constructing and rehabilitating market stalls, and providing boreholes and electricity transformers.

He added that empowerment initiatives such as job facilitation, support for farmers and traders, and distribution of aid to vulnerable groups were also implemented.

Oyintiloye said these interventions reflected the APC’s governance approach, assuring that similar efforts would be sustained in future administrations.

Responding, the Alademure of Ibokun, Oba Festus Awogboro, appealed for increased federal government presence in the community.

The traditional ruler urged the government to consider establishing a federal institution in Ibokun, citing the town’s consistent support for the APC at the polls.

He noted that the community had long agitated for federal presence, adding that such intervention would contribute to local development.

“We have been clamouring for federal government presence over the years. Our people have shown loyalty and support, and we expect this to be reciprocated,” the monarch said.
