The
leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has accused the Ekiti state
governor, Ayo Fayose, of undermining the party's authority by delving into the
affairs of the party's National Working Community.
The
National secretary of the party, Wale Oladipo, stated this today while
addressing reports that Fayose had asked that the party's South West Congress
slated for today to continue despite a court injunction secured by the National
Working Committee preventing the congress from holding.
Oladipo
lamented that Fayose's attitude was unbecoming and that he needs to learn good
behavior from other PDP governors like his Ondo state counterpart, Olusegun
Mimiko
“Governor
Fayose is not a member of the national working committee of the PDP, but he’s
causing confusion with his utterances. We are not dabbling into his government
and he has no right to tell us how to run the party here. We have an order of
the court stopping the congress. The governor cannot overrule the court. He
should behave like other governors who do not dabble into the running of the
party at the national level. He should learn from Governor Olusegun Mimiko of
Ondo State who respect the party and the president of the country. The order of
the court was even published in three national dailies and therefore, he can’t
deny he was not aware. Our national legal adviser who is the chief legal
adviser of the party, Mr. Victor Kwon, has advised that we comply with the
order and we are complying with it. We are not above the law of the land. Those
who want to claim they want to organise any conference are doing that on their
own, not on behalf of the party. Whatever comes out of it would be null and
void because we are not monitoring it.” he said
