Peter Dada, AkureThe Ondo State chapter of the Action Alliance on Wednesday insisted that it was not fielding any candidate for the forthcoming general elections. The state executive said its action was based on the directive of the party’s National Chairman, Mr. Kenneth Udeze. The statement reads in part, “It has become necessary and expedient to bring to public awareness that we the leadership of Action Alliance in Ondo State, after weighing all options, had decided to reject all the claimants of the AA tickets across Ondo State. “We hereby resolve to throw our support for all the candidates of the PDP across the 18 local government areas of Ondo State. “We hereby dissociate ourselves as a political party with integrity which believes in the doctrine of leadership-followership, from all the claimants and purported candidates of our party (AA) in Ondo State, ” the statement added.
