Ladi Adebutu Addresses INEC Exclusion Amid APC Defections
Ladi Adebutu, the governorship candidate for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State, spoke about his exclusion from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) list of governorship candidates, labeling it a temporary setback. He emphasized his long-standing commitment to the PDP, stating he has been its candidate for 20 years and challenged critics to provide evidence of any disloyalty.
Adebutu received over 1,000 defectors from the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the party's secretariat in Abeokuta, led by former House of Representatives member Segun William. William expressed dissatisfaction with the APC's governance and highlighted his decision to join the PDP for the state's development.
Adebutu mentioned that his campaign has reached 12 of the 20 local government areas in Ogun State and reassured supporters that the party would remain focused despite distractions.
