Alhaji Oriyomi Hamzat, popular Oyo State media personality and founder of Agidigbo FM, has officially declared his intention to run for governor in the 2027 elections under the Accord Party.

Speaking at a public declaration, Hamzat made it clear that he will focus solely on his own political ambitions. “I am publicly declaring today that in 2027. I will not campaign for anyone or mobilise crowds for anyone. I will contest in the gubernatorial election under the Accord Party,” he said.

The announcement signals Hamzat’s departure from supporting other candidates as he positions himself for the state’s top political office.

Known for his influential media presence and strong grassroots connections, Hamzat’s entry into the governorship race is expected to add a new dimension to the political contest in Oyo State ahead of the 2027 elections.
