Ahead of the Osun rerun governorship election, Senator Iyiola Omisore has said his Social Democratic Party and the ruling All Progressives Congress will form a coalition to govern the state after the election.
Omisore announced this in Ile-Ife today, in an interview with journalists.
It was the first time he was giving a hint into the electoral arrangement with the APC.
“We have accepted to support the APC for victory in the rerun election tomorrow and thereafter form a coalition government,” he said.
The announcement formally shut the doors of collaboration with the Peoples Democratic Party candidate, Ademola Adeleke.
Omisore who had earlier met with PDP leaders made the decision after high level talks with the leaders of the APC in Ile-Ife.
The APC delegation was comprised of the party chairman, Adams Oshiomhole and four governors, Ajimobi, Ganduje, Amosun and Badaru, including governor-elect Kayode Fayemi and minister of information and culture Lai Mohammed.
