Ignore purported dissolution of Ogun, Ekiti, Ondo excos, Turaki-led PDP tells members

The Tanimu Turaki-led National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has advised members to ignore the purported dissolution of the elected executive committees in Ogun, Ekiti and Ondo states.

The faction’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr Ini Ememobong, in a statement on Saturday in Abuja, described the purported dissolution as illegal and an affront to the proposed reconciliation within the party.

“We have seen a purported announcement of the dissolution of the elected state executive committees in Ogun, Ekiti and Ondo states.

“This dissolution, which is illegal and unwarranted, is an affront to the proposed reconciliation for which talks are underway. This further attempt to deepen divisions at the state and other levels is null, void and of no effect whatsoever.

“We urge the state chapters, all officers of the party at the local government and ward levels and indeed the public to discountenance the said notice and continue to exercise their lawful duties,” he said.

Ememobong said that for the avoidance of doubt, the leadership’s desire for peace must be understood in the context of the need for the salvation of the party for the purpose of the forthcoming elections, and not otherwise. (NAN)
