Ogunbayo also revealed that the party is backing the Social Democratic Party (SDP) candidates for Kwara South and Kwara North Senatorial seats, Prof. Wale Suleiman and Adamu Manko, respectively.

“We are here to formally endorse the flagbearer of the APC for the Kwara Central Senatorial, Mallam Saliu Mustapha, the Kwara North Senatorial Candidate of the SDP Adamu Manko, Kwara South Senatorial candidate, Prof. Wale Suleiman of the SDP, Ilorin-South/Ilorin-East Federal Constituency Candidate, Alhaji Abdulganiyu Cook-Olododo and Asa/Ilorin-West Federal Constituency Candidate, Mallam Mukthar Shagaya, because we believe in their passion for Kwara State and service to the people- which is in line with our party's ideology,” the statement read.
