Kosofe Political Watch — Ogbara Pushes Back Over APC House of Reps Ticket as Internal Contest Deepens.
Hon. Kafilat Ogbara has given a fresh TVC News interview in which she publicly pushes back against losing the APC Kosofe Federal Constituency ticket, with the interview headlined: “I Can’t Accept Losing APC Kosofe Federal Constituency Ticket To Anyone Until…” The video was published within the past week and is now circulating as part of the widening dispute over the Kosofe 2027 House of Representatives contest.
What changed: Ogbara’s position has moved beyond supporter-led townhalls and continuity campaigns into a direct personal challenge to the circumstances surrounding the APC ticket. That is materially different from ordinary mobilisation because she is now publicly framing the ticket issue as unresolved from her own standpoint.
Why it matters: this deepens the political tension between Ogbara’s camp and the emerging Mayor Dele Oshinowo campaign structure. If Ogbara continues to dispute or question the process, Kosofe could see parallel mobilisation, internal-party negotiations, possible appeals or reconciliation efforts before the 2027 race fully consolidates.
What is verified: TVC News published the interview under Ogbara’s name; the headline explicitly records her refusal to simply accept losing the Kosofe APC ticket.
What remains unclear: the indexed material does not yet establish whether Ogbara has filed any formal APC appeal, petition or legal challenge; what specific procedural grounds she is relying on; or whether party leadership has opened negotiations between her and Oshinowo.
