PDP candidate, Accord aspirant, 3,000 others join APC in Oyo
The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for Ibadan North-East State Constituency 2 in the 2027 general elections, Honorable Hammed Taoreed Ademola as well as the Accord aspirant in the same constituency, Honorable AdedapoOjo, on Friday, led hundreds of their supporters to join the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State.
At their formal declaration which took place at a private facility along Old Ife Road, Ibadan, Ademola, popularly known as Lucky, disclosed that his decision to abandon the PDP ticket was informed by the reality on ground.
According to him, “I did my due diligence and I came to realize any ticket outside the APC is a mere tissue paper which cannot take a candidate anywhere in 2027. We are here in our hundreds to join the APC formally and we promise to do our best in the interest of the progressive party and our dear country, Nigeria.”
Speaking at the event, Ojo while describing Accord as a distraction to the people, urged voters to keep faith with the APC.
Receiving them into the party, the chairman of the APC in the state, Chief Moses Alake-Adeyemo, assured them of equal opportunities. Urging the new members to work assiduously for the victory of all APC candidates in the 2027 general elections, he said the coming election is another chance to rewrite the history of the world’s most populous black nation.
