The Accord Party opened a brand new campaign office in Abuja this past week to underscore the fact that it’s a party with the right structure and reach. Professor Imumolen also used the occasion to urge Nigerians to work with him and his party, Accord, on the task of saving the country from desperate, clueless leaders and repositioning it for greatness.
A former Chairman of Saki East Local Government Area in Oyo State, Mr. Dele Adesina, has said he has dumped the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state.
The timing of this announcement coincides with his announcement that he and thousands of his supporters from the Oke Ogun geopolitical zone had joined the Accord Party.
He made the announcement while Mr. Adebayo Adelabu, the Accord Party’s candidate for governor, visited him at his Ago Amodu home.
Adegboyega Adegoke, the Director-General of the party campaign council, and several party chieftains accompanied Adelabu on the visit.
The campaign train also paid respects to Oba Johnson Akinloye Olaoye, the Alamodu of Ago Amodu, to ask for his support in the upcoming elections.
The campaign team similarly visited the Onibaasi of Baasi in Atisbo Local Government Area, Oba Azeez Babatunde, who gave his royal blessing and pledged his support and that of his people for the Accord Party’s governorship candidate.
The monarch assured the campaign team of his unflinching support, urging the people of Ibadanland to cast their votes for one of their own who have most of his investments in Ibadan and across other towns in the state unlike some candidates who their means of livelihood are unknown to the people.
The DG Accord Campaign Council, Adegoke, expressed optimism that the party would emerge victorious in the 2023 election, adding that if the party gets into power, it would ensure local government autonomy so that development can get to the grassroots.
He added that the party would ensure good road networks for smooth transportation of agricultural inputs from Oke-Ogun to various towns and cities across the state and beyond.
The former Deputy Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and Accord gubernatorial candidate, Adelabu, said if he is elected as the next governor of the state, he would provide essential amenities such as low cost housing, revolving loans for farmers, market men and women, health facilities and free education for people of Oke Ogun area and the state as a whole
