National Assembly member, Ekiti South Senator Biodun Olujimi has asked the governor of Oyo State, Mr Seyi Makinde to ignore the threats issued by the former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose over the crisis rocking the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the state.
According to the Senator, Makinde remains the party’s leader in the South-West geo-political zone, urging him to continue “to reposition, galvanise and salvage the party from the brinks of collapse”.
It will be recalled that Fayose had on Wednesday warned the governor not to meddle into political affairs in Ekiti State.
Olujimi said , “Makinde is the symbol of the party in the South-West. So, anything that must come from the zone must come through. Fayose and his conspirators’ visit to Uche Secondus was nothing but a recreational. I can take anybody to the National Secretariat of the party and we take pictures.
“What is important is what was said. While they were there nothing could have been said. We stand by Makinde because nobody can rubbish him and wish him away. This is the best time South-West Zone needs the governor most when ‘hijackers’ are trying to undermine the party’s structure through egregious conspiracy.”
