Adelabu Distances from Aide's APC Defection, Demands Results
Adebayo Adelabu, the former Minister of Power and All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirant in Oyo State, addressed the recent defection of his former aide, Ajiboye Akande, to the Allied Peoples Movement (APM). Adelabu stated that Akande's decision was personal and not reflective of his political stance.
He clarified that Akande was no longer his personal assistant and had ceased any official relationship with him due to disagreements over political directions. Adelabu emphasized that Akande did not consult him before joining the APM and urged the public not to interpret this as an indication of his own plans to leave the APC.
He reaffirmed his membership in the APC and his support for President Bola Tinubu, whom he regards as a political mentor. Adelabu expressed concerns over the transparency of the APC's governorship nomination process in Oyo State and demanded the release of the primary results to ensure legitimacy and acceptance among party members.
