The candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, Adesina Adeyemi-Doro, on Saturday declared support for the All Progressives Congress candidate in the August 15 governorship poll, Bola Oyebamiji.

The APGA candidate announced his decision to step down for Oyebamiji on the sidelines of a programme tagged ‘Osun Youth Interactive Session with Oyebamiji’, organised by the APC Campaign Council in Osogbo.

Adeyemi-Doro, who told journalists that his decision to withdraw from the race followed consultations with APGA executives and members across the state, said the party had reached an alignment with the APC.

“I am here today to declare publicly to the good people of Osun State our allegiance, support, and collaboration as we join His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Oyebamiji, and the All Progressives Congress, APC.
