FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DISCLAIMER ON THE PLANNED “UNITY RALLY AND PEACE WALK” BY A GROUP CALLED RENEWED HOPE MOVEMENT IN OSUN
The attention of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors, Osun State Secretariat, has been drawn to a flier being circulated by a group that calls itself Renewed Hope Movement in Osun, inviting members of the public to a programme tagged “Unity Rally and Peace Walk for PBAT + Imole.”
We wish to state clearly that the Renewed Hope Ambassadors, Osun State Secretariat, has no connection with this group, its organisers, its sponsors, or the said programme. The group is not known to us, it is not part of our structure, and it has no authority to speak for, act for, or represent the Renewed Hope Ambassadors in Osun State.
We also find it necessary to warn members of the public against any attempt to confuse or mislead them by hiding under the name of Renewed Hope. The Renewed Hope agenda is the political and governance vision of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, and it remains firmly rooted in the All Progressives Congress. It cannot be borrowed, twisted, manipulated or used as a cover by those whose political interest in Osun State is clearly outside the APC family.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Renewed Hope Ambassadors in Osun State remain loyal to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the APC, our state leader, Alhaji Isiaka Adegboyega Oyetola, CON, and the party’s governorship candidate, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji. We are not and will not be part of any arrangement that attempts to mix genuine support for Mr President with the political agenda of the Imole camp or any other opposition tendency in Osun State seeking for undeserved and unmerited recognition.
Support for President Tinubu should not be used as a disguise for activities designed to give false legitimacy to those working against the APC in Osun state. Anyone who truly believes in the Renewed Hope agenda should be bold enough to stand openly with the party that produced the President and continues to defend his vision and tendency in Osun and across the country.
For clarity, the choice of the President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the Governorship election coming up on the 15th of August, 2026 is no other person other than the candidate and flagbearer of his party All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji AMBO who will emerge victorious in the forthcoming election. We will not allow a bunch of confused politicians struggling to hold on to straws in their shattered umbrella and sinking ship to deceive the educated and enlightened people of Osun state.
We therefore dissociate ourselves completely from the planned rally and peace walk. Members of the APC, supporters of President Tinubu, and the general public are advised to disregard the programme and treat it as the activity of persons who are not part of the recognised Renewed Hope Ambassadors structure in Osun State.
The Renewed Hope Ambassadors, Osun State Secretariat, will continue to work with the APC leadership, party stakeholders, local government structures, ward coordinators and genuine progressive forces to strengthen grassroots mobilisation for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, and all our candidates for the victory of the APC in Osun State.
Signed:
Ambassador Oluomo Sunday Akere
State Coordinator,
Renewed Hope Ambassadors,
Osun State Secretariat.
