Oyinlola made this known while addressing journalists in Osogbo, Osun State.

Commenting on insecurity, the PDP chieftain identified unemployment, weak governance, poor education, and a failing security architecture as major drivers of banditry, kidnapping, and insurgency, noting that conflicts in the country stem from poor communication and unresolved issues.

He called for stronger community vigilance, recalling a time when local leaders monitored strangers and maintained order before insecurity worsened.

Speaking on the series of defections from the PDP to the APC, Oyinlola said many of the politicians crossing over were driven by personal interests and fear of investigations by anti-graft agencies.

Despite this, he expressed strong confidence that the PDP remains solid on the ground and can still reclaim victory in the 2026 governorship election in Osun State, as well as make a strong showing in the 2027 general elections.
