ILORIN — The ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara State, has said that the party remains one indivisible entity in the state, stressing that the party has not been factionalised into old and new.
The PDP chairman in the state, Alhaji Ishola Balogun-Fulani, said this yesterday in an interview with journalists in ilorin.
Balogun-Fulani also added that those claiming to be pro-Bamanga Tukur-led PDP challenging the primary for the selection of its candidates for the October 26th local government election are faceless.
According to him, “we read in the papers that some aggrieved members of our party took us to court challenging the conduct of our local government election primary. To our surprise up till now nobody has served us the court notice.
“As a party anything we do here is done in accordance with the constitution of the PDP and the primary was conducted in accordance with the constitution of our party. “The national headquarters was informed about the primary and they sent people down here to witness the primary and thereafter they also sent in appeal panel. “When the panel members came they received no complaints from any quarters concerning our primary.
“The panel members had gone back with their report certifying that the conduct of the primary was peaceful and fair.
“Are we even sure that the people that went to court are members of our party or members of other parties?
“As far as we are concerned there are no aggrieved members of PDP in Kwara State. PDP is one in the state, because if there were aggrieved members, the primary that was conducted wouldn’t have been peaceful.”
