How Obasanjo killed
PDP in South-West – Governor Aregbesola
Osun State Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola,
has said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), lost its relevance in the
South-West, after former President Olusegun Obasanjo who brought the party to
the region, tore his membership card.
Aregbesola stated this while on the campaign train soliciting
for votes for Senator Mudashir Husain at Ikire, in Irewole Local Government
Area of the state.
The Governor made it clear that the emergence of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) at the centre, had seen the end of PDP’s reign in
the country.
“Why will any sensible politician at this time will want to
associate with a party that is not only drowning but dead in the South-West.
“It will be an exercise in futility for
anybody to now want to wake up a dead horse through the July 8 Osun West
Senatorial bye-election when founding fathers of the party have not only
deserted the party but wouldn’t want to be associated with it.
“We are all living witnesses to how the former
President openly at his ward declared that the the PDP has gone beyond
redemption, hence his declaration of the obituary of the party with the
symbolic trashing of his membership card,” Aregbesola stated.
