Governorship candidate of Accord Party (AP) in Oyo State Adebayo Adelabu has declared that he will not step down for the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Teslim Folarin.
Mr Adelabu made the declaration in a statement issued in Ibadan on Saturday by Adegboyega Adegoke, director-general of Accord Campaign Council.

He described Adelabu as a known technocrat, corporate guru and a business turnaround expert who had excelled in both private and public sectors.
“Adelabu is contesting to win. He is a known technocrat, corporate guru and a business turnaround expert who has excelled in both private and the public sectors,” he added.
