US Based Nigerian Group Throws Weight Behind APM's Akinlade For Ogun Guber Race


The quest of Allied People Movement (APM)'s candidate in the Ogun State gubernatorial election has received more boost as a United States of America based Nigerian Group, International Network for Better Community, has thrown its weight behind his candidacy.

The endorsement of the group under the Presidency of Tunde Onasanya for Tripple A as Akinlade is also called is coming on the heels of the recent alliance between Ladi Adebutu's faction of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and APM, as the group was hitherto in staunch support of Adebutu's governorship ambition until it was scuttled by a judicial pronouncement which directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognize the candidacy of Senator Buruji Kashamu as the PDP flagbearer in the  Saturday, March 9th elections.

"We support Adebutu because of what he is doing in the House of Representatives for everyone but since he is no more running, we decided to support a progressive minded person like Triple A," the group stated. And the group is said to have been created to better the lives of youths and women in the society. The group championed a campaing called: " Vote or Cry" and has a good number of representatives in Nigeria.
