JUST IN: PDP NWC Rejects New Osun Party Secretariat, Describes It As “Strange Office”

 

 

The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, National Working Committee (NWC) has rejected the new party Secretariat in Osun State.

 

AMILOADED recalls that in earlier December, 2020, in a statement signed by Hon. Olasoji Adagunodo, the PDP Osun State Chairman and Hon. Yemi Adepoju, Assistant Secretary, announced that the state secretariat has been moved to King’s Square, Opposite Biket Junction, no 9 Ikirun Road Osogbo.

PDP said the location was secured during the regime of Elder Sunday Akanfe Atidade as Acting Chairman and paid for by well-known and prominent leaders of the Party.

“Please, take our sincere apologies for the inconveniences this sudden change of the party secretariat may cause you as individuals and as members of our political party and to whom may be concerned, be informed of the change,” the statement read.

The Committee also resolved that the Administrative Director, Alhaji Sikiru Mustapha should take the inventory of all the Party Properties in his care and keep till the time of taking custody and moving them into the new office location.

PDP said it has recognized that the state of the Party is not strong enough as a viable opposition for about two years due to internal crisis on leadership of the Party which has been on for some time adding that political crisis and issues are part of the democratization system and the way the leadership of the Party handles it is more important to the survival of the party.

 

However, reacting to the development, in a statement issued by spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan on behalf of the National Working Committee of the party rejected the new party Secretariat and described it as strange office.

 

According to the statement, “The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) alerts Nigerians of clandestine plots by certain individuals to set up a strange office in Osogbo, Osun state, and purport such to be the Osun State secretariat of the PDP.

“For the avoidance of doubts, the PDP states in unequivocal terms that our legitimate state secretariat in Osun State remains our office located at Km 3, Ikirun Road, beside Federal Road Safety Corps Office, Biket Area, Osogbo, Osun state.

“It is imperative to state that our great party does not operate or recognize any other state secretariat in Osun State other than the above stated.

“All party members, critical stakeholders and supporters, particularly in Osun state and the nation at large, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), all security agencies, the media and the general public should take note and be guided by this accordingly.

“The leadership of the PDP charges all our members in Osun state to continue to work together and not be distracted by any such divisive plots, especially at this time that our party is working relentlessly to rescue our nation from misrule.”
