In a statement by the Oyo State Governorship Candidate, of the Party, Mr Akim Yusuf, the party stated that its candidates are contesting fully in the presidential/National Assembly elections, as well as, the governorship and House Assembly elections across the country.

“The reports and any actions leading thereto do not carry the authority of the members of ADP, Oyo State and we remain solidly behind and committed to our Party’s Presidential candidate, Engineer Yusuf Sani Yabagi.”

The ADP, however, urged all party members and the general public not to be misinformed by the actions of self-serving individuals making purchased endorsements.
