It has been uncovered that Hon. Leke Abejide who was expelled from the ADC by the national leadership of our great party a fourth night ago, has shared out a fake story which is to be published on Saturday, immediately after the party's Kogi West unveiling in Kabba, with the sole aims of discrediting the event.
