Political realignment sparks reactions as former APC chieftain switches loyalty weeks after backing Bayo Adelabu and criticizing rival supporters
Former Oyo State Vice-Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Isiaka Alimi, has reportedly shifted his political allegiance to Senator Sharafadeen Alli, a move that has stirred discussions within the party’s ranks. The development comes just weeks after Alimi publicly declared support for former Minister of Power, Bayo Adelabu, and reportedly directed harsh criticisms and curses at members of the opposing political camp during a gathering of party loyalists.
Sources within the party said Alimi has now aligned himself with Senator Alli’s political structure, signaling a significant realignment ahead of future political contests in Oyo State.
The reported switch has generated mixed reactions among APC supporters, with some describing it as a strategic political decision while others questioned the sudden change in loyalty. Neither Alimi nor key figures in the two camps had officially commented on the development at the time of filing this report, but the move is expected to further reshape the dynamics within the Oyo APC ahead of upcoming political activities.
