OSOGBO — With barely five days to the Osun State governorship election, Muslim scholars and imams across the state have endorsed the All Progressives Congress, APC, candidate, Mr Bola Oyebamiji, for the August 15 poll.
The Muslim groups, who gathered at the country home of the Asiwaju Musulumi of the South-West, Edo and Delta States, in Osogbo, said their endorsement was based not only on religious considerations but also on Oyebamiji’s competence and capacity to deliver good governance.
The groups included the United Imams and Alfas, Qodriyah Islamic Society, Progressive Muslim Teachers, Zumuratu-l-Mumineen, Imam Ratibi, Isale-Osun Zone and Alasaro Osogbo, among others.
Speaking with journalists on the sidelines of the event, Chief Tunde Badmus said the groups were working in support of President Bola Tinubu and had resolved to unite behind the APC candidate in the state.
