“Ajanaku is the only person presented with the party’s flag because he has fulfilled all the conditions and the National Headquarters of the party recognized him.

The party chairman added, ” I am using this opportunity to debunk the unfounded fake news. Neither the party, nor its leader , Senator Rashidi Ladoja was in merger talk with any political party”.
