Ahead of the March 11, governorship election, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State has debunked the rumours making the rounds that the party is in support of the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Sen Teslim Folarin.
A statement issued on Thursday by the PDP Publicity Secretary in the state, Engr Akeem Olatunji, said there is no truth to the report whatsoever.
He appealed to the party’s supporters and all lovers of good governance to come out en masse on Saturday, March 11, and vote for Governor Seyi Makinde and all PDP candidates in the House of Assembly elections.
“The PDP Oyo State wishes to draw the attention of the general public to the news making the rounds that the PDP in Oyo State is in support of the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate in the March 11, 2023 elections. We want to state that there is no truth to this statement whatsoever.
