BREAKING: APC Gains Momentum in Modakeke as Top Entrepreneurs Join Party

There was a major political development in Modakeke today as prominent members of Modakeke Youths in Business officially joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the August 15 governorship election.

The group was received at the residence of the APC Apex Leader in Ife East Area Council, Chief Wahab Olowo-Asalu, where they openly declared their support for the party and its governorship candidate.

The young entrepreneurs, many of whom are well-established business owners in Modakeke and beyond, pledged their commitment to mobilising support and working for the success of the APC in the forthcoming election.

Among those who joined are:

Alhaji Wasiu Usman – Mosolak Oil and Gas

Chief Ajibade Olumide – Riverview Hotels & De Real Pride Trucks and Logistics

Several other business leaders were also present and expressed their readiness to support the party’s candidate, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO), in the August 15 governorship poll.
