Former Minister of Power and All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirant in Oyo State, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, has dismissed reports suggesting he plans to defect to the Social Democratic Party (SDP). He described the claim as false, malicious, and a deliberate attempt to mislead the public.
In a statement issued on Tuesday by his media aide, Femi Awogboro, Adelabu insisted he remains a committed member of the APC and has not contemplated joining any other political party.
“At no time has Chief Adelabu contemplated, initiated, discussed or authorised any move to the SDP or any other political party,” Awogboro said.
He stressed that the APC’s governorship primary process for the 2027 election has not yet been concluded, making rumours of defection baseless.
Awogboro further argued that Adelabu’s political ambition is not driven by desperation, pointing to his distinguished career in both the public and private sectors built on competence, integrity, and hard work.
