At the tribunal, Henry Bello, counsel to APM, said the motion for withdrawal was predicated on four grounds and supported by the two affidavits deposed by Mr. Yusuf Dantalle, the party’s chairman.
The APP counsel also said Mr. Okey Nwosu, the chairman of the party, directed that their petition against Governor Sanwo-Olu be withdrawn.
