The leading political organisation in Osun, Omoluabi Progressives, has applauded the efforts of the tendency’s members as well as their commitment and doggedness to put it in the right position ahead of the 2026 governorship election.
This is as the caucus began the official presentation of membership/registration cards to its members across the state.
The process, coordinated by unit, ward, and local government executives of the political group was applauded by many, stressing that the exercise signals one out of the many strides of Omoluabi to return progressive politics in Osun to its foundation.
Alhaji Moshood Adeoti, a former Chairman of Osun AC/ACN and former Secretary to the State Government, commended the state coordinating team of the tendency for making the process seamless.
Adeoti, who lauded the transparency so far, called on members to keep registering and participate actively in the mobilisation process as well as attend meetings regularly at the ward level.
Speaking with journalists at his Iwo residence, Alhaji Adeoti said, “I cannot but laud the commitment of our leadership from the state chairman, exco and everyone for their transparency so far. It has made the processes we have gone through seamless.
“From registration to the issuance of membership cards, we are glad to see it happen this easy and coordinated. I want to urge my followers and lovers to come out and get their membership cards. It is very easy. We should also step up to attract more minds at mobilisation. That is the only way to go,”
In a separate meeting, a member of Omoluabi Progressives in Ila local government, Saheed Adebayo, noted that residents of Osun are willing to join the fold when it declares its major move in December.
His words, “So far so good, I have mobilised about 100 people to Omoluabi and more are still coming. I can tell you confidently that we are the team to beat.
“Look around the state and tell me which political firmament can boast of the number and quality that we have. It shows that the majority of the people are in our support. We must consolidate on our progress and seek the delivery of good governance, which our overall leader, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, has always encouraged us on,” Adebayo noted.
Speaking with reporters earlier last Saturday in Ilesa, the Chairman of Omoluabi Progressives, Alhaji Azeez Adesiji, explained that the tendency is finalising plans to receive more bigwigs in the state to its fold.
Adesiji hinted that in the next two months, the major political force in the state will declare its major move ahead of the next dispensation, adding that efforts in top gear to admit critical political gladiators in the state.
He urged members across the state to visit their respective wards and registration points to obtain their membership cards.
The Chairman held that, “Our cards are ready. As we did for our key leaders in Ilesa, we have commenced the issuance of cards across Osun. By the time we are done, members will have access to many more packages that will espouse our distinctiveness.
“When we tell people that Omoluabi Progressives is coming to take the reins of power in the state, they will think we are playing. They will think we don’t know what we are doing. They should wait for us. We are not making mouth about it. Check where the genuine progressives are. They are all Omoluabis.
“Our principles accommodate everyone who see politics as a way to better the lives of the people. We are not after pecuniary, but seek to drive the development that the people desire in any government. By the grace of God, we will not let the people down,” the ex-council boss stressed.
It will be recalled that the issuance of membership cards to members of Omoluabi Progressives began on October 26 with the symbolic presentation to former governor Rauf Aregbesola, Alhaji Moshood Adeoti, ex-Speaker, Dr. Najeem Salaam, among others.
