Florence Ajimobi, wife of the late former Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, has received the Accord Party’s governorship candidate in Oyo State, Alhaji Oriyomi Hamzat, at her residence in Lagos.

Ajimobi disclosed this in a statement following the meeting, saying they discussed issues concerning Nigeria, the political situation in Oyo State and the development of the state.

According to her, the discussions also centred on the need to move Oyo State forward, with both parties exchanging views on issues affecting its political and socio-economic development.

They also discussed the 2027 re-election bid of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, with Ajimobi emphasising the importance of unity and cooperation among political stakeholders in the state.

“This morning, I received Alhaji Oriyomi Hamzat, the Accord Party governorship candidate in Oyo State, at my Lagos residence,” Ajimobi said.

“We had a good conversation about Nigeria and our dear Oyo State, particularly the political situation and the development of our state.

“We also discussed the re-election of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, in 2027, and the need for unity and cooperation in moving Oyo State forward.”

“I have always believed that regardless of our political differences, we must be able to sit together, exchange ideas and work towards what is best for our people,” she added.
