In a statement issued by the President of NCWS Oyo State, Mrs. Kikelomo Olu Oyelade, the council described the victories as a positive development for women’s inclusion and participation in politics.


NCWS noted that the emergence of women in different elective positions reflects the growing impact of female leadership and renewed confidence in women seeking public office.

Particular congratulations were extended to Mrs. Hannah Olawumi Ogunesan, who emerged victorious in the APC primary for Oyo North Senatorial District.
According to the council, the success recorded by female aspirants should serve as encouragement for more women across Oyo State to actively participate in governance, policy making, and political leadership.

The Living Dead
