PDP in the southwest geo-political zone of the country may be thrown into a fresh round of intra party crisis over the recent sack of the state Chairman of the party in Osun State, Soji Adagunodo, by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party.
As the battle for the control of the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State rages on, prominent chieftains of the party are not on the same page regarding the removal of the State Chairman of the party, Soji Adagunodo, by the National Working Committee , reportsThe Peoples’ Democratic Party in the southwest geo-political zone of the country may be thrown into a fresh round of intra party crisis over the recent sack of the state Chairman of the party in Osun State, Soji Adagunodo, by the...
But another prominent chieftain of the PDP from Ondo State allayed such fears, saying the leadership of the party at the national level is handling matters differently this time because it has learnt from past mistakes. “What we do now is to carefully examine the desire of the party members, not just the dictates of a few leaders, wherever we have crisis, and take decisions that will be popular with the ordinary members of the party.
But Adagunodo is insisting that he is in charge of the party in the state, stating that his purported removal was a social media affair as there was no official communication from the party headquarters confirming his removal. He said, “I have not received any official letter from the National Headquarters of the Party, I only read it on the social media as you all did.
But Senator Olu Alabi, medical doctor and member of the PDP Board of Trustees , disagreed with Ogunwale, insisting instead that the stakeholders of the party are behind Adagunodo. “As far as we are concerned, all the members of the PDP BoT from Osun State are on one page; all the elders are on the same page over the issue. It is the Adeleke family that is saying they want to preserve the Adeleke dynasty.
Meanwhile, Chief Simeon Adebayo Ajeigbe, another member of the elders’ forum of the party faulted Alabi’s claims, saying “I am disappointed like most members. Firstly, Alabi’s unsubstantiated allegations and wild rhetoric against the Adeleke family, to say the least, reflects an unacceptable mind set from someone who is a BOT member and should be seen as a rallying person within the party for peace rather than being very acrimonious and being an agent of discord in the party.
