Your Ambition a Misplaced Priority, IC tells Obafemi


A group within the All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State, Integrity Caucus, has described the ambition of former aviation Promoter, Mr. Peter Obafemi as inordinate and outright misplaced priority.

Publicity Secretary of the group, Michael Falodun in a statement made available to newsmen in Ado Ekiti on Monday, described Obafemi as a serial contestant, loser and a failed aviation Promoter who had also failed on the home front. 

Falodun described the PDP Governorship aspirant as an enemy of Ekiti who will never see anything good in the State because of his inordinate ambition which has always suffered defeat.

"One cannot be too surprised about the statement from Obafemi, who failed in business and also in his marriages. He is psychologically unbalanced to differentiate between what is good and what is bad due to his bitter life experiences, having run his businesses aground with his debauchery and wantonness.

"A sane mind will not describe a flyover meant to decongest traffic; save time,  provide aesthetics, improve productivity, and impact the economy as a misplaced priority. So we understand and sympathise with his plight",  the statement read in part. 

The Integrity Caucus added that Obafemi's inordinate ambition will not make it through the primary just like in  2007 and 2014 and advised him to focus and concentrate his energy on his third marriage which held recently to avert catastrophes experienced in the past.

While thanking the Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke for his benevolence to his friend and resuscitating him back to limelight after falling at different times, the group advised Governor Adeleke not to expend Osun State resources on Obafemi's inordinate, misplaced and ill-timed ambition which will not see the light of the PDP primary as usual.

IC expressed confidence that Oyebanji will secure a second term in office with overwhelming majority of the votes cast due to his wide acceptability; having served the people meritoriously by making the welfare of Ekiti people and development of the State his topmost priority.

October 25, 2025 A former governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Mrs. Atinuke Oluremi Omolayo (née Okeya), who was duly screened and cleared by the party’s National Screening Committee, has demonstrated uncommon party loyalty by stepping down for Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji and actively participating in the delegate congress held today in her Eporo Ward, Emure Local Government Area. Mrs. Omolayo, who was warmly received with an Ọ̀wọ̀ song by jubilant party members, expressed appreciation to her ward for the support they gave her when she initially declared her intention to contest for governor. She explained that her decision to step down for Governor Oyebanji was informed by his wide acceptability across the state, sterling performances in office, and commitment to Ekiti’s growth and development, which she described as derivatives of continuity. While addressing the crowd, Mrs. Omolayo urged party members in Eporo Ward...

Ignore Rumours: APC Confirms Governor Oyebanji’s Name to Be Submitted to INEC on January 16, 2026

…As APC Spokesperson Reiterates Official Candidate List Ahead of Publication The APC Integrity Caucus has moved to dismiss what it describes as a reckless and senseless rumour being circulated by a few individuals posing as party members. The gossip, they said, claims that the party “does not intend to submit” the name of Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). In a statement released on Thursday, November 14, 2025, the caucus said such claims are baseless and should be ignored by every well-meaning member of the public. “Since the successful conduct of our governorship primary on October 27 and the ratification by authorised delegates on October 29, some mischief makers have been whispering that the party will not submit Governor Oyebanji’s name to INEC. This is completely false,” the statement read. The caucus emphasized that the APC operates according to a clearly defined timetable, which specifies the dates for submissio...
