The South-West Zone General Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Ramon Owokoniran, has said members of the party in the zone are aggrieved that the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, campaigned for opposition presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, during the February 25, 2023 presidential election.
Owokoniran said both the party member and non-party members in the zone were still sad that Makinde campaigned for the APC candidate at the detriment of their party’s presidential flagbearer, Atiku Abubakar, noting that what transpired at the presidential election in the state should not be used to determine the Makinde’s re-election on March 18.
Speaking with our correspondent, he said the governor made the party believe that he was not against Abubakar until the last minute.
He said, “The South-West PDP is not happy with the development that Makinde campaigned for another presidential candidate at the detriment of our candidate. All the while, the governor made us believe that he wasn’t against the candidate.
