Gov. Seyi Makinde of Oyo State and presidential candidate of the Allied People’s Movement (APM) has held strategic talks with the party’s South-West governorship candidates.
Prince Laja Adeoye, APM governorship candidate in Lagos State, made this known in a statement made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday.

Adeoye said the meeting focused on strengthening the party’s structures and coordinating grassroots mobilisation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
He said the meeting was attended by Bimbo Adekanmbi, APM governorship candidate in Oyo, Prince Laja Adeoye of Lagos and TPL Rotimi Babajide of Ogun.
He added that the APM’s governorship candidate from Osun State also participated in the strategic meeting.
According to him, discussions centred on intensifying preparations and consolidating the party’s presence across the South-West geopolitical zone.
Adeoye said the party was particularly focused on Lagos, Oyo, Ogun, Osun, Ekiti and Ondo states as strategic areas for building electoral strength.
He said the objective was to transform the states into “reliable strongholds” for the APM ahead of the 2027 elections.
The Lagos candidate said the party also planned to expand its influence beyond the South-West as part of its broader national mobilisation strategy. (NAN)
