PDP Caretaker Chairman in the Southwest local government area of Ekiti State, Hon Idowu Akinbode has called on the party leaders to embrace peace and desist from unnecessary press war which he said was capable of rocking the party's boat in the 2022 governorship election in the state.
Reacting to a publication purportedly credited to Mr Lanre Omolase alleging the senator representing Ekiti South Senatorial District, Mrs Biodun Olujimi of being responsible for the personal opinion made in The Nation Newspaper by some notable leaders of the party; Akinbode said the open confrontation was unwarranted.
Akinbode said, "I made overtures to his phone, perhaps busy. The Molar I know could not have made such uncivilized comments. We believe this is one of the handiwork of the 5th columnists whose ego thrives in an unsettled society."
Akinbode who is presently the Chairman, Forum of PDP local government party Chairmen, said; "Our priority now as leaders of PDP, particularly in Ekiti state, should dwell more on collectivism and not to dissipate our energies to self-fighting"
Akinbode also added that the local govt caretaker Chairmen in Ekiti State believe in the leadership of our National Chairman Prince Uche Secondus and the National Working Committee of our great party and they have hope that the NWC will soon resolve all the lingering crisis within Ekiti PDP in a shortest possible time.
He however appealed to Senator Biodun Olujimi to remain focused and avoid being distracted in her representation at the Red Chamber.
He said, "Efforts are in place to meet these leaders, Elder Kayode Oguntoye and Hon Lanre Omolase who are heads of groups and whose names are prominent in the undue media attacks that recently ensued from my local government, ESW. I must remind you all that collectively we have delivered victory in elections in the past and if we must consolidate on this good results, we must remain formidable as a party and tolerate one another."
