Hon. Oladipupo Adebutu is one of the notable sons of Ogun State and one of the governorship candidates soliciting our support”.

“It’s obvious that the Labour Party governorship candidate has not been recognized by INEC, reason many of the other parties candidates were soliciting our support. My party faithfuls and I are still consulting on who to work with, though ready to work with other parties who are ready to accommodate our plans for the people for our voice to be heard loud and clear”.

 

“As I have said earlier, Teepee and his people shall remain in Labour Party (LP), build it together and prepare for greater position in the future”.

 

“I want to appeal to my teeming Labour Party members and supporters to remain calm”.
