Adebayo who claimed that the PDP was responsible for the problems confronting Nigeria asked rhetorically, how do we go back to form alliance with such party again?

“We joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) because we were injured by the PDP, the APC has also injured us. So, for us there won’t be any alliance with any political party in Kwara State and elsewhere.
