The embattled Oyo State Chairman of the Association of Local Government of Nigeria (ALGON), Prince Ayodeji Abass-Aleshinloye has debunked rumours making the rounds that he was planning to dump the All Progressives Party (APC) for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
In a Statement issued on Friday Abass- Aleshinloye described the rumour as unfounded and laughable, saying the rumour must have emanated from idle minds who hawk, live and thrive on unintelligent political propaganda.
Reproduced below is the full Statement:
“My attention has been called to a trending unfounded lie that I, Prince Ayodeji Abass-Aleshinloye, has joined a party called People’s Democratic Party, PDP. This prevarication is quite laughable, please disregard it. The lie must have emanated from idle minds who hawk, live and thrive on unintelligent political propaganda they tagged, “Ibon Oselu” (political gunshot) to survive on crumbs from their masters’ tables.
“The propaganda is untrue, cannot be true and will never be true. I am not a stomach infrastructure and unprincipled politician, who hops from party to party seasonally based on transient political climate change to survive.
“I have never discussed with anyone in PDP or any party and will never think of PDP because “political leprosy or Covid” will never be my portion (with due respect to my good social friends in PDP).
