2027: ADC raises alarm over removal of billboard in Ibadan

Gubernatorial candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, ahead of 2027 general elections in Oyo State, Chief Adegboyega Adegoke has raised an alarm over the removal of one of his billboards in Ibadan. 

Adegoke made the claim in a statement issued by his media office on Saturday. 

He alleged that Oyo State Government illegally removed his billboard at Idi-Ape junction in Ibadan, the State capital.

He also alleged that his banner, which contained his own picture and the ADC presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, was removed and replaced by a banner which has the pictures of Governor Seyi Makinde, APM Presidential candidate and the APM Governorship Candidate in Oyo State, Mr Bimbo Adekambi. 

He described the action as illegal.

Adegoke claimed that the current administration in the state was jittery of the popularity of Atiku. 

“Such illegal act will not be tolerated and it cannot diminish the growing popularity of Oloye Adegoke and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar in Ibadan and the entire Oyo State.

“Is this how we want to continue to play politics in Oyo state, behaving as if we are in a banana republic?

“Gov Makinde should not be jittery. He should be ready to face the electorate. As far as Oloye Adegoke and Alhaji Atiku are concerned, they are sure of victory come 2027,” he said.
