PDP Crisis: South West PDP BOT members and Stakeholders Berate Fayose over face off with Seyi Makinde

By Wasiu Owolewa Ado-Ekiti

The former governor of Ekiti, Mr Ayodele Fayose has been berated  by PDP leaders and BoT members from the South West region over his face off with governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo state.

The regional stakeholders and Leaders of the party reminded Mr. Ayo Fayose that he is no longer in power but just as an ordinary member without the authority to decide the fate of the party in the region any longer.

The BOT members  and leaders of PDP in the South West in a signed  press release also warned the National headquarters of the party to desist from giving the former governor undue recognition which is inimical to the progress and success of the party.

They appealed to all National Working Committee to deal directly with the Executive Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde who is now the only recognized leader of the party in the zone and not Fayose who has spent his time on that seat and no longer in leadership position capacity.

It will be recalled that Gov. Fayose of Ekiti State in 2016 single-handedly handpicked Dr. Eddy Olafeso and Bunmi Jenyo as Chairman and Secretary of the party in the zone without recourse to any other leadership of the party. 

He was said to have gone to Abuja few days ago to submit a list of parallel executives of Ekiti State which is at variance with what actually obtained in the state and also submitted the name of a governorship candidate of the party in Ondo State and the immediate past South West Vice Chairman and Secretary of the party, Dr. Eddy Olafeso and Revd. Bunmi Jenyo respectively as his preferred candidates and that of a millionaire business mogul from Osun State in deviance to the decision of the entire leaders of the party in the South West region.

....Vows to take action on criminals  I receive daily security reports on the attacks on critical national infrastructure, and it is very clear that those behind them want this administration to fail. Whoever wants the destruction of the system will soon have the shock of their lives. We’ve given them enough time. I received a briefing today from the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), on the series of attacks on their facilities nationwide. These attacks are totally unacceptable, and we will not allow those behind them to achieve their evil objectives. I have assured INEC that we will make available to them everything they need to operate efficiently, so that no one will say we don’t want to go, or that we want a third term. There will be no excuse for failure. We will meet all of INEC’s demands. In the area of security, we have changed the Service Chiefs and the Inspector-General, and we are demanding that they rise fully to the challenge...
