THERE were indications on Monday that cracks had developed in the Ondo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party .

Jegede is a close ally of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar; he won the primaries, despite the support Ajayi got from five PDP governors. It was gathered that their plot is to split PDP’s votes and stop Atiku from producing a governor in the Southwest to use as a springboard for 2023 presidential race.But the ruling All Progressives Congress , which was aware of the development in PDP, has been banking on the cracks in the opposition to consolidate its strength across the state.

Jegede’s camp was said to be wary of Ajayi, who controls nine members of the Ondo State House of Assembly. Another source added: “We are good to go and bounce back as a political family. It is true that our boss met some powerful forces who asked if there was enough war chest to prosecute this battle and our oga told them he could raise N10 billion for the October 10, 2020 governorship election in the state.
