The political atmosphere across Ibadan North-West and Ibadan South-West Federal Constituency has taken a dramatic turn as momentum continues to surge in favor of Honourable Oluwatobi John Ogunbayo (OJO) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), with constituents, party faithfuls, and undecided voters increasingly aligning behind what many now describe as the most credible and people-driven aspiration in the race.
From ward to ward, a clear message is echoing: the people are no longer interested in recycled promises—they are demanding results, accessibility, and purposeful representation. And in their eyes, Ogunbayo stands out as the candidate ready to deliver exactly that.
This growing wave of support was evident on Wednesday during a high-powered grassroots consultation held at Ward 11, People’s Primary School, Ring Road, Ibadan South-West Local Government Area. The meeting, which drew an impressive turnout of residents, community leaders, party stakeholders, and women groups, quickly transformed into a resounding endorsement rally.
Addressing the enthusiastic crowd, Honourable Ogunbayo expressed deep appreciation for the overwhelming reception, describing it as a strong signal that the people are ready for a new chapter. He reaffirmed his commitment to a representation model that is not only visible but impactful—one that directly addresses the real needs of the people.
In a bold and unapologetic tone, Ogunbayo highlighted what many constituents have long whispered: that the federal constituency has not maximized its full potential at the national level in recent years. He declared his intention to break that cycle and usher in a new era of results-driven leadership.
According to him, his agenda is clear and uncompromising—strategic investments in healthcare, aggressive support for agriculture, structured youth empowerment programs, and deliberate job creation initiatives that will reposition the constituency for sustainable growth.
“I am not here to make noise; I am here to make impact,” Ogunbayo stated firmly, drawing applause from attendees. “Our people deserve representation that works for them every single day—not just during elections.”
The response from community stakeholders further reinforced his rising dominance in the race.
Honourable Sakiru Oluranti, speaking on behalf of local leaders, described Ogunbayo’s emergence as both timely and necessary. He noted that while the constituency has a proud history of credible representation, there is a strong belief that Ogunbayo possesses the capacity, energy, and vision to not only sustain that legacy but significantly outperform it.
In the same vein, Honourable Seyi Oladipo delivered a direct message to residents: the time has come to rally behind a candidate who understands the grassroots and is willing to stay accountable to them. He urged Ogunbayo to remain grounded and continue prioritizing the people, emphasizing that this connection is what sets him apart from other contenders.
Adding a powerful dimension to the endorsement, the Ward Women Leader openly declared the unwavering support of women across the constituency, signaling a major political advantage for Ogunbayo as consultations deepen.
With influential APC leaders from both Ibadan North-West and Ibadan South-West in attendance, alongside respected elders from Elewura, Oluyole, and Adeoyo, the meeting underscored a growing consensus within the party structure: Oluwatobi John Ogunbayo is fast becoming the preferred choice—not just by endorsement, but by conviction.
As his consultation tour expands to the Local Government level, political observers note that the trajectory is clear. What started as a candidacy is rapidly evolving into a movement—one driven by grassroots acceptance, strategic engagement, and a bold promise to redefine representation.
For many constituents, the decision is already made.
And for the opposition, the message is unmistakable—the race has changed.
