Other party figures also supported the decision, saying it follows the party’s method of settling internal issues and keeping members together. They added that the choice is expected to help the party gain support across the wards in Yewa South.
Orebiyi, while accepting the decision, thanked party leaders and members for trusting him with the role. He said he is ready to serve the people and work for development in the constituency. He also asked other party members to work together and support the party’s plans as the election approaches.
The agreement is expected to reduce tension within the party and improve its chances as preparations continue for the 2027 elections.
