Former governor of Oyo State, Otunba Adebayo Alao Akala has announced his decision to join the All Progressives Congress, APC.

This development, however, did not come as a surprise to many political observers because the Ogbomoso born politician has been seen almost all the time fraternizing with the leadership of APC both at the state and federal levels.

The decision to jettison his baby, Labour Party, the platform he used to contest the last governorship election in Oyo State was made after an extensive meeting with his followers and admirers at his Old Bodija, Ibadan residence on Tuesday morning.
