Adelabu Withdraws from Oyo 2027 Governorship Race
Adebayo Adelabu, the former Minister of Power, has officially withdrawn from the 2027 governorship race in Oyo State following his loss in the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election. In a statement dated Thursday, titled ‘APC Nomination Process in Oyo State: Closing the Contest, Not Conceding the Injustice’, Adelabu clarified that his withdrawal does not signify acceptance of the alleged injustices that marred the primary process.
He explained that his decision stemmed from deep reflection and a strategic reassessment of recent developments within the APC. After taking a short vacation abroad due to the challenges faced in recent months, he returned to consult with party leaders and supporters.
Adelabu noted that discussions revealed serious concerns regarding the transparency and integrity of the nomination process, emphasizing the existence of substantial documentary materials and evidence that question the process and its outcomes.
