The Osun State chapter of the New Nigeria Peoples Party has announced December 13, 2025, for its primary election to chose the gubernatorial candidate for the August 08, 2026 election.
The date was convened in a press release signed by the Osun NNPP Chairman, Mr Tosin Odeyemi.
Odeyemi said arrangements had been made for a successful primary election, adding that the party would not just participate in the next governorship poll but would work hard to emerge victorious at the election.
Giving other details about the party’s activities ahead of the governorship poll, the NNPP chairman said, “We have not less than four aspirants, and many people are still informing us of their interest in joining us.
“The 2026 gubernatorial election will definitely be a different ball game in Osun, as we are set to spring surprises.”
Speaking further on the NNPP’s chances, Odeyemi said the party “is a new bride in Osun, as it is harvesting from the present crises in the ruling Peoples Democratic Party and the sharp division within the All Progressives Congress due to the allegation of planned imposition of a candidate.
“I am so happy that this gubernatorial election is different in Osun. People are now seeing our party as a third force through which they can strive. As we speak, we have not less than four aspirants, and many people are still informing us of their interest in joining us.
“The 2026 gubernatorial election will definitely be a different ball game in Osun. We are set to spring surprises. We are working underneath, and feelers have made us realise that Osun masses are ready to support whoever emerges as our candidate after the December 13, 2025, primary election,” he said.
