A group, Remi Oseni Committee of Friends (ROCOF), says it is working assiduously to deliver one million votes for President Bola Tinubu come the 2027 presidential election.
The group’s convener, Hon. Remi Oseni, representing Ibarapa East/Ido Federal Constituency, stated this in Ibadan on Sunday.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Oseni spoke while receiving defectors from other parties at the ROCOF Constituency General Meeting.
The gathering also witnessed the empowerment of constituent members.
Oseni said ROCOF was put together to harmonise and network members to think together about the progress of the group and the All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to him, ROCOF also serves as a platform to encourage and motivate the commitment of party faithful.
“We are not just asking them to gather for grouping sake, but for the betterment of all, and see how we can move as a team to achieve our party’s common goals.
“Our goal is to liberate people who have been imprisoned politically and to ensure that indigents are properly empowered.
“One of our focal areas is to help ourselves in the areas of education, youth empowerment, skills acquisition, and support for market men and women to progress in their businesses.
“We are also doing this to strengthen APC across all levels.
“The array of people present at this combined constituency programme is a clue that APC is set for victory in 2027,” he said.
Oseni added that the success recorded during the just-concluded APC ward and local government congresses was another testament to the party’s leadership commitment.
“It also reflected the genuine resolve of all stakeholders to put the party first,” he said.
He attributed the success of the congress to the leadership commitment from the federal to the grassroots levels.
According to the group’s chairman, Mr Yemi Aderibigbe, ROCOF is a movement determined to add value to APC as it has all it takes to win the 2027 elections across all levels.
“We are no longer contesting, particularly in Oyo State; we are taking over the government house in 2027,” he said.
NAN reports that the event featured the distribution of N1,000,000 cheques to each of 20 selected youths from the constituency.
Meanwhile, some selected market women and artisans were given N100,000 each in support of their businesses. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
