The African Action Congress (AAC) and the Accord Party have both distanced their members and stakeholders from the purported endorsement of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Babajide Sanwo-Olu, ahead of Saturday's governorship election in the state. This was announced in separate statements by the parties on Tuesday, adding that their parties were not for sale and they would not trade the dividends of democracy for the people with anything else.
The Lagos State chapter of Accord Party has dismissed rumours making the rounds that the party plans to go into alliance with other political parties ahead of the 2023 governorship and state assembly elections on Saturday. The party disclosed this in a statement signed by its Lagos state Chairman, Engr. J. Ola Beckley and the Director General, Accord Lagos Campaign Council, Comrade, Lanre Ogundare.
