Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu has said his returning to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is to help President Bola Tinubu’s administration succeed.
Adelabu spoke on Friday during his official return to the APC at the party’s secretariat in Oyo state.
In May 2022, Adelabu resigned from the APC and defected to the Accord Party (AP) after he failed to secure the party’s ticket for the Oyo state governorship election.
The minister said members who left the APC with him have also returned to make the party stronger.
He added that his decision to return to the APC is not about his governorship ambition.
“I returned not because of 2027 governorship ambition or to take over the party, but because I believe this is a party that brought President Bola Tinubu to power, and we need to support him to deliver on his electoral promises,” Adelabu said.
“This is not time for politics, it is time for governance and Tinubu needs our support for him to succeed and deliver on his Renewed Hope Agenda.
“I have come back to the party not to take over the party and not to dissolve executives; we have come to the party to extend hands of fellowship and reconciliation.
“We are assuring you that we are back for cooperation and collaboration for us to build a strong party so that the party will take over power in the state at the end of the day in 2027.”
