The Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO) Media Fronts has firmly dissociated both the AMBO Movement and its Principal, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji, from a circulating publication purportedly calling for the disqualification of Senator Christopher Iyiola Omisore from the race for the 2026 Osun governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In a statement issued on Sunday, the group described the publication as “the handiwork of fifth columnists” bent on creating disunity within the Osun APC ahead of the critical 2026 governorship contest.
The AMBO Media Fronts clarified that the so-called “AMBO Campaign Organisation” referenced in the publication does not exist.
“There is nothing like an ‘AMBO Campaign Organisation,’ as stated in the publication. It is properly referred to as the AMBO Movement since the APC primary has not yet been conducted and no candidate has emerged,”
the statement read.
The group noted that a formal campaign structure will only be set up after the party’s primaries, in accordance with INEC regulations.
AMBO also reaffirmed its respect for Senator Omisore and all other aspirants, saying the APC remains “one big family bound by mutual respect and shared purpose.”
“Otunba Omisore is an experienced politician, eminently qualified to become the Governor of Osun State,”
the statement added.
It stressed that Asiwaju Bola Oyebamiji is a peace-loving contender who has maintained an issue-based, non-divisive approach to politics.
The Media Fronts urged party members and the general public to disregard the publication and remain focused on uniting the party to reclaim Osun State from what it described as “the lacklustre administration currently mismanaging the state.”
Press Release
AMBO Knows Nothing About Petition to Disqualify Otunba Iyiola Omisore
The Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO) Media Fronts has disassociated the AMBO Movement and its Principal, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO), from a publication currently circulating and purportedly seeking the disqualification of Senator Christopher Iyiola Omisore, a governorship aspirant in our party, the APC, for the 2026 gubernatorial election.
First, there is nothing like an “AMBO Campaign Organisation,” as stated in the publication. It is properly referred to as the AMBO Movement, since the APC primary has not yet been conducted and no candidate has emerged. Only after the party selects its flag bearer, in line with INEC guidelines, will a campaign organisation be constituted.
The publication, no doubt, is the handiwork of the fifth columnist aimed at causing division and bad blood within the Osun APC, and weakening our collective resolve to end the lacklustre administration currently mismanaging the state.
Asiwaju Bola Oyebamiji holds profound respect for Otunba Omisore, just as he does for all other aspirants in the All Progressives Congress. In the APC, we are one big family bound by mutual respect and shared purpose. Otunba Omisore is an experienced politician, eminently qualified to become the Governor of Osun State.
We state once again that AMBO is a peace-loving personality, devoid of desperation for power, and would never descend into divisive tactics or smear campaigns that undermine the integrity of fellow aspirants. His widely acknowledged issue-based campaign remains focused on advancing the progress and prosperity of Osun State.
We call on the public, especially the teeming supporters of our great party, to disregard the accusation against the AMBO Movement.
