In a significant move ahead of the 2026 elections, Dr. Rafiu Ajakaye has declared his candidacy for the House of Representatives seat representing Ifelodun/Offa/Oyun. His announcement is a strategic appeal for support from key stakeholders within the All Progressives Congress (APC), aiming to consolidate his position within the party and the constituency.
Ajakaye, who has previously held various political roles, emphasizes unity and collaboration as essential for a successful campaign. "Our goal is to bring together all factions within the party to ensure we present a formidable front in the elections," stated Abiola Adebayo, a prominent APC state executive. This rallying cry underscores the importance of party cohesion as Nigeria approaches a critical electoral period.
As Ajakaye seeks to leverage his network and experience, the focus will inevitably shift to how effectively he can mobilize both party loyalty and grassroots support. Success in this endeavor could redefine the political landscape in Ifelodun/Offa/Oyun, making Ajakaye not just a candidate, but a pivotal figure in the APC's broader strategy for the upcoming elections.
