State chairmen of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the South-West have said the party was tired of the divisive acts of the Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, describing him as a major problem of the party.
The State Chairmen in a statement after their meeting in Lagos on Monday insisted that “heaven will not fall if the congress is not held on Saturday, and we can say it boldly the congress will not hold on Saturday because PDP is not a lawless party.”
The chairmen who attended the meeting were those of Ogun, Ekiti, Lagos and Osun States, Dr Sikirulai Ogundele, Otunba Bisi Kolawole, Engr Adedeji Doherty and Hon Sunday Bisi respectively.

South-West State chairmen of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have dared the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, to dump the party, after he warned the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party against postponing the South-West congress of the party.
PDP had fixed April 10 for the event to hold in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
However, Makinde, in a statement issued by his media aide, Taiwo Adisa, warned the NWC against bowing to pressure to postpone the congress, saying such would be resisted.
Makinde urged the NWC to rise to its responsibilities and prevail on the person or persons who are “acting as clogs in the wheel of the party’s progress.”
