The prolonged crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) in Oyo State took a new twist on Monday as stakeholders in one of the factions asked Governor Seyi Makinde to forget about the party’s ticket for the 2023 polls.
Rising from a meeting on the forthcoming PDP congresses held at the Jogor centre in Ibadan, the stakeholders also passed vote of no confidence on the leadership of Governor Seyi Makinde in Oyo state.
In a communique issued at the end of the meeting, the stakeholders expressed their readiness to halt Engineer Makinde’s second term governorship ambition by preventing his emergence as the party’s candidate for the 2023 general elections.
The stakeholders accused Governor Makinde of allegedly reneging on his promise before and during the election for PDP members by allegedly neglecting real PDP members and leaders only to be promoting those who were not around during the election making them to be the ones benefiting from government.
Emphasizing that efforts are at ensuring that Oyo PDP is back to the genuine members of the party, the stakeholders urged for peaceful conduct of the PDP Congress beginning from this Saturday, 25th September to October, 16th this year.
Tasking PDP members in and across the state to go back to their wards and ensure victory for the party and maintain peace and orderliness before and during the congresses, the stakeholders said, ” go . to your wards, mobilise your people. Don’t fight anybody. Record whatever happens and leave us to do the remaining in Abuja,” it said
