Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) in Ogun State has disowned the recent comment of one, Samson Bamgbose who said former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose lacked the moral right to complain about the leadership of the party in the South West region of Nigeria.
The State PDP Chairman, Honourable Sikirulah Ogundele in a statement in Abeokuta, disassociated itself from the comment and described Bamgbose as an impostor who is parading himself as the party’s state chairman.
The State PDP asked Bamgbose to stop parading himself as chairman, saying the only authentic State Congress was midwifed by former chairman, Chief Adebayo Dayo last July which produced Ogundele and other members of the State Executive Committee monitored by officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) under the supervision of PDP National Working Committee.
The State PDP according to the statement, will never condemned any of its leaders within the South West including Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State and former governor of Ekiti State, Fayose.
The party described the comments credited to Bamgbose as height of recklessness against Fayose who should be respected as former governor and one of the leaders within the South West region in the country.
Bamgbose who is a loyalist of the Late Senator Buruji Kashamu was reported last week Thursday in the media, to have strongly condemned Fayose who faulted the leadership style of Governor Seyi Makinde in the handling of campaign activities of the Ondo state governorship candidate, Eyitayo Jegede,SAN for the October 10 poll in the state.
