The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State has appointed Alhaji Moshood Abas as its new acting chairman, following the death of the former chairman, Isaac Omodewu, who passed away last month. Prior to his new role, Abas served as the deputy state chairman of the party.
This was disclosed in a statement released on Monday, September 16, 2024, by the Oyo APC Publicity Secretary, Olawale Sadare, and shared with journalists in Ibadan.
Abas had originally been elected alongside the late Omodewu and other state executive committee members during the party’s state congress held in October 2021 at the Obafemi Awolowo Stadium in Oke-Ado, Ibadan.
According to the statement, Abas’ elevation to acting chairman was unanimously ratified by all members of the state executive committee during an emergency meeting held at the APC state secretariat in Oke-Ado on Monday, September 16.
