Supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State yesterday stormed the party’s post-election committee sitting in Ibadan Oyo Sate calling for an all-inclusive PDP in the state. The protesters stormed the venue of the sitting just as the committee was receiving memoranda from Lagos, Ekiti and Oyo states. Speaking through their leader, Honourable Akinwumi Akinfemwa, the protesters, under the aegis of new PDP, called for an all-inclusive PDP in the state to enable the party recover every inch of lost ground in 2019. They carried placards with inscriptions such as “No to hijackers and jagbas in Oyo State,” “Oyo PDP is dying…Bring back our members in Accord, SDP, and Labour Party,” “Leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Oyo State, have called for the re-integration of Senator Rashidi Ladoja, Chief Adebayo Alao-Akala, Mr Seyi Makinde and others into the umbrella party if the party must return to winning ways in future election Meanwhile,the party’s chieftains under the aegis of Oyo State PDP Leaders of Like Minds in recommendations presented to the Emeka Ihedioha-led PDP Post-Election Review sub-committee, expressed reservations over the choice of Uche Secondus as acting national chairman of the party, averring that “people with questionable character should not be allowed to hold positions within the party.” Those who signed the nine-page memorandum presented before the former speaker of the House of Representatives included Dr Saka Balogun, Senator Ayo Adeseun, Chief Jumoke Akinjide, Alhaji Hazeem Gbolarumi, Professoor Taoheed Adedoja, Professor Soji Adejumo, Femi Babalola, Alhaji Kunmi Mustapha, Alhaji Bisi Olopoenia and eight others. The leaders said the hijack of the party structure and consequent imposition of unpopular candidates with the support of some members of the National Working Committee forced Ladoja, Alao-Akala, Makinde and others out of the party and led to its dismal performance at the last elections. “The party should imbibe the culture of transparent internal democracy in all its dealings. If we want to regain our lost glory, conscious and concerted efforts should be made to bring back into our fold, all willing members of Accord, Labour Party and SDP. “Since primary election did not actually hold in Oyo State, all monies collected from aspirants should be refunded by the party…. Party should strictly adhere to its guidelines on how delegates and party executives are to emerge. “The party has a structure in place to resolve crisis that might emanate in the party. However, the operators of the structure did not imbibe the spirit of equity, justice and fair play in handling disputes. “More often than not, cases were determined in favour of the highest bidders and people with links with the National Working Committee members. The template adopted by the Presidency to harmonise the camps of Musiliu Obanikoro, Chief Bode George and Jimi Agbaje was not replicated in Oyo State…,” they said.
