Senator Tolu Odebiyi has withdrawn from the All Progressives Congress (APC) Ogun West senatorial primaries, citing concerns over fairness, equity and balanced representation within the district.
In a notice announcing his withdrawal, which was made available to THISDAY on Monday, Odebiyi said the decision followed “careful reflection” on the conduct of the primaries and broader political considerations affecting Ogun West Senatorial District.
The lawmaker, who represented the senatorial district in the 9th National Assembly, explained that his withdrawal was informed by the need to ensure fair representation across the district, particularly with respect to the place of Ado-Odo/Ota in the political arrangement within Ogun West.
