Ignore Defection Rumours, I’m Not Planning To Leave LP For APC-Olumide Akpata
Former Edo State Labour Party governorship candidate , Mr Olumide Akpata, has clarified and submitted that he has no plans to defect to APC while describing the rumours claiming that he is planning to leave LP for APC as untrue.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Akpata, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and former president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), made the clarification in a statement he issued on Tuesday.
He described the rumours that he has left LP for APC as ‘utterly false’.
‘In the past 24 hours, a malicious, mischievous and utterly false rumour has been concocted in the dark alleys of social media, and unfortunately amplified by mischief-makers, alleging that I have abandoned the Labour Party, the very platform on which I contested the 2024 Edo State gubernatorial election, to join the All Progressives Congress.
This is not only false but laughable. I state without equivocation that I have neither contemplated, discussed, nor effected a defection to the APC, and for the avoidance of doubt, I have no intention of ever joining the APC’ he submitted-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
