The statement added that there is no political relevance in Obasanjo's comment where he endorsed Peter Obi ahead of other presidential candidates in the election.
Speaking on the medical record of the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, Oladejo said no presential candidate has been campaigning as the former governor of Lagos state has been doing.
He said:
“It is not enough to present Tinubu’s health record in public as none of the presidential candidates in the race had been campaigning all over the country like him."
APC's 7 days of fasting and prayer may not work against Adeleke as expected
Legit.ng earlier reported that the Osun state governorship election tribunal has set Friday to decide the fate of Gboyega Oyetola of the APC and Ademola Adeleke of the PDP.
APC has urged its members to begin seven days of fasting and prayers for spiritual backup for its legal evidence presented before the court so that it can be favoured.
However, the 7 days of fasting and prayer may not work as INEC counsel, Paul Ananaba, in his final writing, said that even if the polling units APC contested are removed, Adeleke will still win the election by over 20,000 votes.
