He said: “We are not being marginalised; we are waiting for our time. Now is our time to take over the state and by God’s grace, the Oracle will speak in our favour.’’
The meeting convened by Ajose brought together grassroots coordinators, party stakeholders and political leaders.
He said the aim of the meeting was to strengthen political structures ahead of the coming electoral cycle.
Ajose appealed to Badagry Division people to ensure they register in the ongoing APC e-registration, to enable the party win the 2027 general election.
Joseph Bamgbose, an APC apex leader in Badagry-West Local Council Development Area (LCDA), said the meeting was to enable the governorship aspirant get familiar with APC leaders in the 10 councils in Badagry Division.
The Oniworo of Iworo Kingdom, Oba Oladele Kosoko (Ogundeyi), said the emergence of Ajose as APC governorship aspirant from Badagry was an opportunity for them.
He urged the people of Badagry to stay united and explore the opportunity.
