Reports that the Peoples Redemption Party’s (PRP) presidential candidate, Kolawale Abiola, had resigned in favour of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress have been refuted by the party.
Samson Okusanya, the party’s state chairman, addressed a press conference in the capital of Ogun State, Abeokuta, on Thursday and denied allegations that the party had disintegrated in favour of Tinubu.
Okusanya said that the party and its presidential candidate were still in contention to win the election, but that given the sensitive nature of the situation, it was crucial to dispel the rumour.
He believed that some people’s lack of impropriety was endangering the party’s integrity, reputation, and years of hard work.

He said:
The news of allegiance to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and or any other candidate is false. It’s in abhorrence to the values and principles of our party and investigations are on going to establish the complicity of the quoted officials, with view for punitive actions..For the first time since 1983, the PRP is participating in a presidential election and the visibility of the party across various levels is encouraging, as it is threatening to the antagonists of the common people, who have continued to seize and remained in power for self-enrichment and oppression of the masses.With a promise to bring liberation to the people of Nigeria, the PRP has fielded governorship, senatorial, House of Representatives and House of Assembly candidates.Today, as we speak, the grand finale of the presidential rally is taking place in Kano, as the party finalises its campaign, in line with INEC guidelines. The presidential candidate of the party, Mr Abdulateef Kolawale Abiola, is still very much in the race and is positioned to coast to victory. A reality that unsettles the other actors from other parties.
