Like it happened in the 2011 and 2015 elections in Oyo State when the then ruling party, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, was defeated by the All Progressives Congress, APC, the party seems not to have learned from its past mistakes as it again held two parallel congresses last Saturday where two factional state executives emerged.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has extended the closing dates for purchase and submission of Nomination Forms earlier fixed for November 19 to November 29, 2017. This according to a statement signed by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, is to accommodate would-be aspirants yet to pick up their forms to do so.

FORMER Minister of Education and national chairmanship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prof Tunde Adeniran has advised Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State to support his ambition to emerge the party’s national chairman in the December 9  convention, saying the South-West geopolitical zone will not produce the presidential candidate of the party in 2019.

THE crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the South West continued unabated, yesterday, as both the Senator Buruji Kashamu faction and that of  Dr Eddy Olafeso held two parallel zonal meetings in Ibadan.

Ado-Ekiti—THE  immediate past Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice in Ekiti State and a governorship aspirant, Mr. Owoseni Ajayi has warned that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, may lose the state if Governor Ayodele Fayose imposes his deputy, Dr Kolapo Olusola as the sole candidate for the 2018 governorship polls.
