<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

The political parties are, Better Nigerian People\u2019s Party; Freedom and Justice Party; National Action Congress; National Democratic Liberty Party and Masses Movement of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Others include, All Blending Party; People\u2019s Progressives Party; Advance Congress of Democrats; Democratic People\u2019s Congress and Progressives People\u2019s Alliance.<\/p>\n

The spokesman of the aggrieved parties under the aegis of Political Parties\u2019 Chairmen\u2019s Forum, Olusegun Olufemi, told reporters in Abeokuta, the state capital on Wednesday that they were not a party to the said adoption of Akinlade.<\/p>\n

Akinlade is the anointed candidate of the State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun.<\/p>\n

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

The forum\u2019s petition is dated December 24 and signed by all the ten political parties.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Olufemi said, \u201cWe reject in totality the adoption of any governorship candidate. We urge members of the public to disregard the purported adoption of any political party\u2019s candidate.<\/p>\n

\u201cCalls have started going round about the adoption of the APM governorship candidate by IPAC.<\/p>\n

\u201cI 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not part of the APM adoption and that adoption holds no water and it can\u2019t stand.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
