Alao, the former secretary to Oyo state government maintained that  the party would avoid the mistakes of both Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in choosing its governorship candidate.

Olakojo assured that the party would work hard to defeat the governing party at the centre and form the government next year, even though he was uncertain about the party’s presidential candidate.

His statement reads further, “We are already on ground in Oyo state and you will see that in the whole of Oyo state today, ADC is the only party on ground.

“We make sure that we work together and I want to assure you that working together has made ADC a very strong political party.

“I want to assure you that by the special grace of God, we are doing everything possible to ensure that ADC controls the government of Oyo state next year”.
