The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate in 2019 Oyo gubernatorial elections, Chief Adebayo AbdulWaheed Adelabu has made a case for himself why he will get party’s ticket come 2023 and contest as flag bearer of the party.
Chief Adelabu made reference to former governors in Ogun, Ekiti and host of others who have lost elections before they eventually won. He said this while speaking at the day one of his official guber declaration held at Adebayo Adelabu Foundation, Jericho, Ibadan.
He boasted that when he secures the ticket of the party, such would give him easy ride to defeat incumbent Governor Seyi Makinde who is also seeking re-election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He said he has remained consistent as a party man.
The former Deputy Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) cited that those that worked for the victory of Governor Makinde in 2019 were not with him as 2023 general elections draw closer.
He highlighted that the likes of Chief Olufemi Lanlehin, Chief Adebisi Olopoeyan, Hon. Mulikat Akande Adeola, Engr Remi Oseni, Mr. Femi Babalola have deserted ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the State.
