OYOINSIGHT.COM recalls that Akintola was the last of the many APC aspirants to step down for Adelabu at a primaries that took place at the Lekan Salami Sports Complex, Adamasingba, Ibadan.

At the primaries, Akintola had announced his withdrawal from partisan politics.

“In the heat of the moment,” Akintola explained, “I felt betrayed. I knew what was going to be the implication. I saw myself in the same position late Chief Bola Ige found himself in 1998. Bola Ige had always been with the progressives. He had done a lot. I looked at myself that with all I have done. Most of her are beneficiaries of my goodwill.

“Imagine giving ticket to someone who joined our party in April and got the ticket in August. And you expect me to be clapping. How would you have felt if you were in my shoes.
