The
New PDP, inspired by Wednesday’s
Court of Appeal reversal of the sacking of ex-Osun State Governor,
Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, as the National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), has declared the days of Alhaji Bamanga Tukur and his illegal National
Working Committee (NWC) in the Wadata Plaza Headquarters of the party as
numbered.
Chief Eze Chukwuemeka
Eze, the National Publicity Secretary of the New PDP, said in a statement that
the members would storm the PDP National Secretariat the following Monday,
November 11th, for Prince Oyinlola’s swearing in, and urged the PDP National
Legal Adviser Mr. Victor Kwom not to delay it.
“This is just one of
the anomalies we have been complaining of that came about due to lack of
internal democracy in our party occasioned by the undemocratic elements that
hijacked the structure of our party and we are relying so much on the Judiciary
to help us in addressing other anomalies that gave rise to our present struggle
and restore hope back to our party,” the statement commented about the court
victory.
The New PDP expressed
the hope that very soon, its other court cases asking for the dissolution of
the Tukur-led NWC would be given the same serious attention to enable them
formally take over the reins of the party and restore it to the path of honour,
justice and democratic norms which Tukur and his cohorts have bastardised.
It also expressed its
sympathy with the former National Secretary, Prof. Wale Oladipo,
who it said achieved the unenviable record as the shortest reigning PDP
National Secretary since the formation of the party.
“As we commend and
congratulate Prince Oyinlola for this feat, we urge him not to be corrupted by
the undemocratic toxic that may have been dropped in his office by Prof.
Oladipo as many Nigerians look up to him to not only to restore hope to the PDP
but to also use his magic wand to unify the party. We are happy of sending him
back to the Wadata Plaza in advance as our present day John the Baptist to
prepare and to announce to the world of our arrival as the authentic NWC of our
great party within the next few weeks,” the statement concluded.
