We Will Win Osun Governorship Election Without Omisore – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party, Osun State chapter, has said that the party would win the September 22 governorship election in the state without its former governorship candidate, Iyiola Omisore.

Recall that Omisore had on Thursday dumped the PDP whereby his supporters were seen burning the party flags at the state secretariat, an act which was condemned by scores of former political officer holders and the party chieftains.

While addressing journalists, the Coordinator of the Ex-PDP Political Office Holders, Tajudeen Adeyemi said “The PDP belongs to the people and not any individual. You all must have realised that the PDP has been doing well since we left the secretariat at Ogo Oluwa.

“I can assure you that the PDP is going to win the Osun governorship election this year with or without the participation of Senator Iyiola Omisore. But we still leave a room for reconciliation but whether he leaves the party or he joins us. We will win the election.”

Adeyemi said leaders as well as members of the party we shocked to see Omisore allegedly watch as his supporters set ablaze the party flags at the secretariat of the PDP faction loyal to him.

The former political office holders explained that the fight against the PDP by Omisore dated back to 2014 immediately after the last governorship poll in the state.

Adeyemi said the party set up a committee after the election and discovered that Omisore did not use the fund meant to provide eventual logistics for the election.

He said, “Attempts to ask him questions on this led to so many unpalatable reactions from him which included the ejection of the party from the Ogo Oluwa property which hitherto served as the party secretariat.
