Ondo Guber 2016: Oke finally dumps APC, joins AD

The National leadership of the Alliance for Democracy, AD, has formally written a letter to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, asking for the replacement of its candidate for the coming governorship election in Ondo State.

The AD asked that the name of the party’s candidate, Dr. Akin Olowookere, be substituted with that of Chief Olusola Oke for the governorship election.
The party had already persuaded Olowookere to make way for Oke, following the intervention of some prominent founding fathers of the party.

Olowookere, it was gathered, has agreed to the arrangements and will become an integral part of the Oke team.
Oke defected to AD alongside some aggrieved governorship aspirants from the APC and more than twenty thousands of APC members.
