Former Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, has dismissed reports suggesting that he may defect from the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Adelabu clarified that he remains a member of the APC and has no plans to leave the party. He said the recent defection of his former aide, Ajiboye Akande, and some APC supporters to the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) was not connected to him.
He explained that Akande is no longer his personal assistant and does not represent him or speak on his behalf in political matters.
Adelabu also said his ambition to govern Oyo State is not a do-or-die affair, adding that his focus remains on contributing to the development of the state.
The clarification comes amid political realignments in Oyo State as parties and politicians position themselves ahead of the 2027 elections.
