AHEAD of the 2026 governorship election in Osun State, some members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have resorted to spiritual activities on behalf of the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Mr. Adegboyega Oyetola.
The APC members have been seeking spiritual help for Oyetola for people to love him and give him their support in 2026.
OSUN DEFENDER reliably gathered that some of the Oyetola loyalists have been going from herbalists and prophets to others to seek spiritual atonement for Oyetola to be popular and accepted by the people of the state.
It was learnt that the concerned loyalists were disturbed about the continuous unpopularity of Oyetola and the way people have been rejecting his choice for the 2026 governorship election.
This is just as some APC members organised a special victory prayer for Oyetola for him to secure the ticket of the party and win the governorship election.

The prayer was organised by Osun Non-Returned Caretaker Councillors, a political group within the state APC, in Osogbo, on Monday.
Chairman of the group, Hon. Maroof Salam said the prayer session was a testament to the strong bond and solidarity within the Osun APC on the Oyetola’s aspirations.
Salam assured the former governor of their loyalty and commitment towards his 2026 ambition.
However, the prayer session has stirred reactions from residents of the state through their various social media handles.
A Facebook user, Geoffrey John, said God would never answer such prayer, saying APC is evil to the people.
He wrote: “God almighty will never answer this one, God does not like oppression. APC are evil people.”
