Accord governorship candidate in Oyo State, Alhaji Oriyomi Hamzat, has paid a courtesy visit to Nigeria’s Ambassador to Austria, Florence Ajimobi, at her Lagos residence. Ajimobi said they discussed Oyo politics and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s bid for a second term in 2027.
In a statement shared on social media on Sunday, November 15, Ajimobi said the meeting also covered national affairs and the development of Oyo State.
The former Oyo State first lady called for unity and cooperation among political leaders. She said leaders should maintain dialogue across party lines and work together in the interest of the people.
Ajimobi, the widow of former Oyo State Governor Senator Abiola Ajimobi, also serves as Nigeria’s permanent representative to international organisations in Vienna.
The visit comes as political consultations intensify ahead of the 2027 Oyo governorship election. Ajimobi’s account of the meeting gave no indication of an endorsement of Hamzat’s candidacy or a formal political alliance.
