PDP: South-West Leaders Disagree With Makinde Over Call For Ayu’s Resignation

EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leaders in Ogun State have distanced themselves from a statement earlier credited to Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, which demanded the immediate resignation of the party’s national chairman, Sen. Iyorchia Ayu.

 

This online media platform understands that Governor Makinde had at a meeting with the southwest stakeholders in Ibadan where the party’s presidential flag-bearer, Atiku Abubakar was present, demanded that Ayu must vacate his position ahead of the 2023 general elections.

 

EDITOR’S PICK

 

Makinde was quoted to have said that southwest leaders have resolved that someone from the South occupy the PDP chairmanship seat to prove their inclusion in the party’s processes.

 

In a statement, however, made available to newsmen on Friday by the PDP Publicity Secretary in Ogun State, Akinloye Bankole, the party stakeholders from the region said there was no prior agreement relating to Makinde’s declaration.

 

According to Bankole, the leaders are of the view that the agitation for Ayu’s resignation is unnecessary and also dangerous for the wellbeing of the party especially as the political mobilization and campaigns for 2023 general elections build up across the nation.

 

“Ogun PDP strongly insists that the sanctity of the party constitution cannot be slaughtered on the altar of narrow individuals’ whims and caprice,” Bankole noted.

 

Bankole posited that the party, at this crucial stage of its democratic existence, requires full concentration to remain focused on its goal of rescuing and repositioning the country for prosperity and abundance.

 

According to him, party stakeholders must withdraw from all forms of distractions as it could jettisoned the common goal ahead of 2023 polls.
