In Osun, Political Maturity Takes Center Stage as BOA, Babayemi Reaffirm Brotherhood



In a rare and commendable display of political unity, two All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirants in Osun State the immediate past Deputy Governor, His Excellency Benedict Olugboyega Alabi (BOA), and Prince Dotun Babayemi jointly attended a special celebration in Irewole Local Government Area on Saturday.

The occasion, held in honor of retired Colonel Olayiwola Falabi, a respected APC leader, marked both his birthday and the launch of a women’s empowerment program aimed at uplifting grassroots participation in local development.

Their presence at the event was widely seen as a symbol of political maturity and camaraderie, defying expectations of rivalry in the lead-up to future elections. Rather than competition, Alabi and Babayemi projected a shared commitment to the progress of Osun State, setting an example for party members and the broader political landscape.

In his address, Alabi congratulated Col. Falabi on his birthday, lauding his decades of meritorious service to Nigeria and his steadfast contributions to the APC. He praised the women’s empowerment initiative as a crucial step toward inclusive governance and sustainable development.

“The empowerment of women is key to strengthening our communities and ensuring that no one is left behind in our pursuit of progress,” Alabi said.

Prince Babayemi also paid glowing tributes to the celebrant, describing him as “a beacon of integrity and leadership.” He called for greater unity within the APC and emphasized the need to build alliances that transcend personal ambition for the greater good of the party and the state.

“The strength of our party lies in our ability to work together, not in division. Unity is the path to victory and sustainable development,” Babayemi stated.

The event drew several dignitaries and party faithful who praised the show of solidarity between the two aspirants. Their joint appearance sent a strong message of hope, cohesion, and forward-looking leadership reinforcing public confidence in the future of Osun State.

The celebration served not only as a personal milestone for Col. Falabi but also as a renewed call for collective action and purpose within the APC as it prepares for the challenges ahead.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
