Ona Ara Local Government took center stage in Oyo State’s evolving political landscape on Saturday, 7th February 2026, as leaders, stakeholders, and loyal members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) gathered for the party’s monthly local government meeting—an event that has now clearly signaled the beginning of serious alignments ahead of the 2027 general elections.
What began as a statutory party gathering quickly evolved into a strategic political convergence, with aspirants and political interests positioning themselves as internal consultations and future party decisions draw closer. The venue at Elekuro School Meeting Place reflected the growing political consciousness within the PDP, as discussions focused on party unity, internal developments, and the welfare of members.
Amid the array of political activities and emerging interests, Hon. Tosin Alabi stood out distinctly—not through aggressive self-promotion, but through unmistakable grassroots presence and widespread acceptance across the wards of Ona Ara Local Government.
Already one of the most visible political figures across Oyo State, Hon. Tosin Alabi’s growing influence was evident in the coordinated and disciplined turnout of his supporters. Across the venue, party faithful proudly displayed the “Tosin De Ororun De” identity, with supporters adorned in branded T-shirts and face caps, signaling a movement that is structured, consistent, and deeply rooted at the grassroots level.
Although unavoidably absent, Hon. Tosin Alabi was ably represented by Hon. Yerima, who delivered his message to the Ona Ara PDP family, emphasizing loyalty to the party, commitment to collective progress, and the importance of unity as the PDP prepares for future electoral contests.
The meeting attracted several prominent party leaders, stakeholders, and the Executive Chairman of Ona Ara Local Government, reinforcing the political relevance of the gathering and the broad-based engagement within the party. Observers noted that Hon. Tosin Alabi’s steady rise continues to be fueled by daily grassroots engagement, accessibility, and sustained relationship-building rather than episodic political appearances.
The political energy of the day extended beyond the meeting itself, as residents and PDP loyalists openly expressed overwhelming support for Hon. Tosin Alabi’s aspiration to represent Egbeda/Ona Ara Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives come 2027. The atmosphere was one of unity, celebration, and clear political intent.
Activities earlier in the day commenced from Hon. Tosin Alabi’s campaign office in Olorunsogo, Ona Ara Local Government, where supporters gathered in large numbers, accompanied by traditional drummers and live bands. The procession to the meeting venue created a vibrant, carnival-like atmosphere that reflected both enthusiasm and organized mobilization.
Participants described Hon. Tosin Alabi as a compassionate, people-centered leader whose consistent humanitarian engagements across Egbeda and Ona Ara Federal Constituency have already made meaningful impact. Many highlighted the interventions and community support initiatives carried out through his foundation, noting that his service to the people has been steady and visible even without occupying public office.
For many party members and residents, Hon. Tosin Alabi represents accessibility, continuity, and genuine grassroots leadership. His growing acceptance across Ona Ara and beyond is increasingly seen as a reflection of trust built over time, not sudden political ambition.
As conversations within the PDP intensify and the road to 2027 gradually unfolds, the message from Ona Ara is clear: a structure is taking shape, the grassroots are aligned, and Hon. Tosin Alabi’s political momentum is no longer speculative—it is visibly unfolding.
