on strengthening the state’s political party, not pursuing a governorship bid.

Obasa explained that his efforts to mobilize support for the party have been misunderstood by some as a personal ambition to become governor. He firmly denied these claims, stating that his primary goal is to build the party, and any discussions of the governorship race are secondary.
