Bimbo Adekanmbi, the Allied Peoples’ Movement (APM) candidate for governor of Oyo State, has publicly challenged Senator Sharafadeen Alli to present a scorecard of his performance in the Senate. Adekanmbi warned that the people of Oyo would not reward what he calls the senator’s alleged incompetence.
During a campaign event, Adekanmbi urged voters to hold public officials accountable, saying that “the people will not reward Senator Alli’s alleged incompetence.” He called on the senator to demonstrate his achievements and contributions to the state’s development.
Senator Sharafadeen Alli, a member of the National Assembly representing Oyo State, has faced criticism from opposition parties over his legislative record. Adekanmbi’s challenge is part of a broader push by the APM to highlight the need for transparency and results‑oriented governance in the upcoming election.
Oyo State, located in southwestern Nigeria, is one of the country’s most populous and politically active regions. The upcoming governorship election has attracted attention from several major parties, each seeking to address local concerns such as infrastructure, education, and economic growth.
As the campaign season heats up, Adekanmbi’s call for a Senate scorecard underscores the growing demand among voters for measurable evidence of public officials’ performance. The APM’s message aims to differentiate its candidate from incumbents and other contenders by emphasizing accountability and results.
