Shock, Surprise In Ibadan As Tinubu’s Aide Sunday Dare Becomes Ministerial Nominee
It was with shock and utter disbelief that political pundits and players in Oyo State got the news that Sunday Dare, an ex Chief of Staff to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was favoured as the Ministerial nominee from the State.
To those in the know, Dare is not in the political formation of the State. His nomination sent a wave of shock through political camps all over the state.
Earlier before the announcement, names of top politicians, Bayo Adelabu, Joseph Tegbe, Dr Olusola Ayansina and former Governor, Senator Abiola Ajimobi were being touted as would-be Ministers while the former Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu also assured his supporters of his strong conviction to beat others to the post.
All these went down the drain with Dare’s nomination and people started raising eyebrows, weighing the factors that threw him up.
A source confided in papermacheonline that Sunday Dare is indeed a candidate of Tinubu, but that he wouldn’t have been able to pull it without the strong support of ex Governor Ajimobi.
There were beliefs in certain quarters that Ajimobi had a hand in his nomination as they cited his remarks when he said ‘I don’t want to be Minister, I’m only interested in going back to the Senate’.
It was further revealed that the ministerial nominee who hails from Ogbomoso had started some empowerment programmes in Oyo State long before the last election.
The permutation was that with a ministerial appointment, Dare would be able to garner more influence that would enable him run for Governor in 2023.
His nomination is said to have thrown the APC in the State in disarray as members were of high hopes that one of the titans of the party would eventually emerge in the party’s interest.
Sunday Dare is the Executive Commissioner of the Nigerian Communications Commission. Until his appointment he was the convener of the Social Media Clinic and a former Chief of Staff/Special Adviser to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

All The Shocking Details As PDP Declares Adedamola Osun Flagbearer, Beats Gov Adeleke in Tense Primary
In a dramatic twist that has sent shockwaves through Osun’s political landscape, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared Hon. Adebayo Adedamola as its governorship flagbearer after a fiercely contested primary that saw him defeat incumbent Governor Ademola Adeleke.
The keenly watched primary, held amid heavy security and intense party interest, drew party delegates from across the state. What many expected to be a smooth victory for the governor turned into a tightly fought race, with Fryo gaining momentum during delegate consultations and strategic bloc alignments.
According to party officials, Fryo clinched the majority of valid votes after what they described as a transparent, credible, and highly competitive exercise. His supporters erupted in celebration as the final tally was announced, chanting solidarity songs and hailing what they called “a new direction for Osun PDP.”
Adedamola, popularlcy called Fryo is said to be a close ally of APC stalwart, Iyiola Omisore. Fryo was among the people arrested over the killing of late Attorney General, Chief Bola Ige.
Political analysts say the upset signals a significant shift within the party’s power structure, as the result reflects growing agitation for fresh leadership and a repositioning of the party’s influence across local government blocs.
Governor Adeleke, who had sought the party’s ticket to secure a second term, was said to have congratulated Fryo in a closed-door exchange, though members of his camp are still digesting the unexpected outcome.
Fryo, in his acceptance speech, promised to unify the party, consolidate on its achievements, and present a formidable front ahead of the general elections. He described his victory as “a mandate for renewal” and urged party faithful to rally behind him for what he termed the decisive battle ahead.
With this development, all eyes are now on how the PDP navigates the post-primary atmosphere and prepares for a heated governorship election season in Osun State.
