His words, “I am no longer a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The decision to leave my former party is not a sole move, but a joint resolution after careful consideration by myself and political associates of decades.
“I did not abandon the party because it is a party I contributed immensley to build. However, it is time to leave and pursue the interests of my people on another political platform. I have not retired from politics. I am still here working on the field to see the other veritable platforms where I can further aid the development of my people.
“When I was in the House of Assembly, God was able to use us to influence as many personal and state government interventions to Akinyele local government. Our records are intact and available for everyone to verify. We did not just do it because of politics but to further facelift of our people.
“By the time I conclude my consultations, I will declare my next political tent. I want to thank everyone in APC who supported our cause. The people is always my focus. I will continue to pursue these dreams of emancipating our people till we get to the promised land,” Kolade said.
The former Oyo lawmaker who is known for his humanitarian services remains the best legislator with track records of outstanding achievements through legislative function and constituency projects.
