PDP Candidate Hammed Ademola Joins APC with 3,000 Supporters
On October 4, 2026, Honorable Hammed Taoreed Ademola, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for Ibadan North-East State Constituency 2 in the 2027 general elections, and Honorable Adedapo Ojo, an aspirant from the Accord party, led approximately 3,000 supporters to formally join the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State. The event took place at a private facility along Old Ife Road in Ibadan.
Ademola, known as Lucky, explained that his decision to leave the PDP was based on thorough research, concluding that any ticket outside the APC would be ineffective in the upcoming elections. Ojo described the Accord party as a distraction and encouraged voters to remain loyal to the APC.
Chief Moses Alake-Adeyemo, the chairman of the APC in Oyo State, welcomed the new members, promising them equal opportunities and urging them to work diligently for the success of all APC candidates in the 2027 elections.
