A strong wave of political unity swept through Ikere, Ekiti State, on April 3, 2026, as stakeholders and leaders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) openly declared their support for the candidacy of Hon. Bamidele Oluwole Olusola-Eleka (BOE).
The strategic meeting, held at the party’s secretariat in Oke Osun, was led by the Ikere Local Government ADC Chairman and attracted key party figures and grassroots mobilisers. Discussions centred on BOE’s vision for Ekiti South Federal Constituency I, with particular emphasis on youth empowerment, student support, care for the elderly, and sustainable community development—areas stakeholders noted he has already impacted through his non-governmental initiatives.
Party leaders expressed confidence that the growing alignment among members would translate into electoral success, describing the gathering as a clear indication of unity and shared purpose within the ADC in Ikere. The warm reception accorded to BOE’s representatives further highlighted what many described as a deep-rooted connection between the aspirant and the people.
Speaking at the meeting, members of BOE’s campaign team, alongside ward coordinators, reiterated their commitment to people-focused leadership and inclusive representation. They stressed that the campaign remains anchored on addressing the real needs of constituents while promoting unity and collective progress.
Observers note that the increasing wave of endorsements and stakeholder engagements is positioning BOE as a formidable contender in the race. With momentum building, supporters believe Ekiti South Federal Constituency I is poised to elect a representative committed to responsive governance and tangible development.
The statement was signed by Olawunmi Olabode Grace, Ikere ADC Media Coordinator.
