Ten political parties in Ogun state have turned down the reported
endorsement of Adekunle Akinlade, the governorship candidate of the
Allied Peoples Movement, APM, by the Intra-Party Advisory Council, IPAC,
in the state.

The political parties are, Better Nigerian
People’s Party; Freedom and Justice Party; National Action Congress;
National Democratic Liberty Party and Masses Movement of Nigeria.

Others
include, All Blending Party; People’s Progressives Party; Advance
Congress of Democrats; Democratic People’s Congress and Progressives
People’s Alliance.

The spokesman of the aggrieved parties under
the aegis of Political Parties’ Chairmen’s Forum, Olusegun Olufemi, told
reporters in Abeokuta, the state capital on Wednesday that they were
not a party to the said adoption of Akinlade.

Akinlade is the anointed candidate of the State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun.

He
said the forum had sent a petition to the national chairman of IPAC,
High Chief Peter Ameh, against Abayomi Arabambi- led exco.

The forum’s petition is dated December 24 and signed by all the ten political parties.

He
accused the executive members of the state chapter of IPAC of
misconduct, abuse of office and engaging in actions inimical to the
parties constituting IPAC in the state.

Olufemi said, “We reject
in totality the adoption of any governorship candidate. We urge members
of the public to disregard the purported adoption of any political
party’s candidate.

“Calls have started going round about the adoption of the APM governorship candidate by IPAC.

“I
want to state clearly that we did not adopt anyone since we also have
our own governorship candidates. So, we have come here today to debunk
any of such claims.

“We are not part of the APM adoption and that adoption holds no water and it can’t stand.”
