Lawal said the APC was committed to working in unity with members of the existing State Presidential Campaign Council to achieve its electoral objectives.
“As a party, we are resolute to work in unison with every member of the State Presidential Campaign to deliver on our mandate as we muster concerted efforts to ensure victory for all the National and State Assemblies candidates of our great party,” he added.
The APC chairman expressed confidence in the party’s collective efforts, ending the statement with solidarity messages for President Tinubu, Osun State and Nigeria.
