Alao-akala Dumps PDP For LP by jrace(m): 7:04pm On Dec 09, 2014 |
Alao-Akala dumps PDP for LP DECEMBER 9, 2014 BY OLUFEMI ATOYEBI, IBADAN 4 Comments Former Oyo State governor Adebayo Alao-Akala has left Peoples Democratic Party for Labour Party, where he has re-ignited his governorship ambition ahead of 2015 elections. Alao-Akala left the party after Teslim Folarin was elected as PDP governorship candidate at the party’s primary in Ibadan on Moday. The former governor did not take part in the exercise as he was addressing his supporters in Ogbomoso while the primary took place. He said the decision to move to LP was made based on the advice of his supporters. A meeting took place in his Ibadan home on Monday night with some of the party leaders who are sympathetic to Alao- Akala’s course in attendance. Media aide to the former governor, Abraham Ojo said that his boss also quit PDP because of the insincerity and injustice in the party. He said, “Thousands of supporters of the former governor stormed his Bodija residence in Ibadan to deliberate on the way forward after the injustice meted to him by the PDP. After series of meetings and discussion, they all decided to leave the PDP and move to an alternative party which is LP. Among the party leaders at the meetings are Chief Jacob Adetoro, Chief Adigun Irawo, past commissioners in the state, past council chairmen and other politicians. Abraham said it was also decided that there was no reason for the group to remain in the PDP because the party had refused to toe the line of truth. “Everybody in the state is aware that Alao-Akala and his supporters are strong pillars that held the party and if a genuine delegate congress is conducted, he will always win. But since the national secretariat has given in to the manipulations of the minority in the party, we have no option than to quit,” he added. source:Punch www.punchng.com |
