Press Release:
Chairman Refutes Allegation of Mass Defection from APC to PDP in Akoko South East and Ilelabo LCDA
Date: July 20, 2024
For Immediate Release
The Chairman, Transition committee, Ilelabo LCDA Hon Adesina Alaye, categorically refutes the recent allegations of a mass defection from the APC to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the local council area.
Contrary to the reports circulating in certain media outlets and social media platforms, the APC remains a robust and unified party in Ilelabo LCDA and Akoko South East, with unwavering support from our loyal members and constituents. These rumours are baseless and appear to be a deliberate attempt to undermine the strength and unity of our party.
“The APC in Ilelabo LCDA and Akoko South East is as strong as ever. We continue to enjoy the support and confidence of our members and the general public,” stated Chairman. “There has been no mass defection, and our members remain committed to the ideals and principles of the APC.”
The Chairman further emphasized that the party is focused on its mission to deliver good governance and development to the people of Ilelabo LCDA and her sister local government Akoko South East under the leadership of Engr. Ayegbo Omonehin. “Our dedication to improving the lives of our people is unwavering. We are working tirelessly to ensure that our policies and programs positively impact the lives of our people as always emphasizing by our indefatigable people’s Governor, Hon Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa,” he added.
The APC calls on the public to disregard these unfounded allegation and to remain steadfast in their support for the party as PDP umbrella is already torn. The Chairman also urges all members to continue working together to strengthen the party and to stay focused on our collective goals.
It should be noted that since inauguration of Hon Adesina Alaye as the Chairman, Transition committee Ilelabo LCDA by Mr. Governor, PDP in the area has been so uncomfortable considering his political ideology, tenacity, sagacity, and leadership acumen and being the architect of modern politics in the entire local government. The implication of his political qualities are testimonials in the purported claim of defection.
