Ambassador Musiliu Obanikoro, a former Senator, who contested the 2007 governorship
election in Lagos State and currently serves as Chairman of the Board of the
Industrial Training Fund(ITF) in a recent interview said the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) is already making plans ahead the 2015 poll.
Obanikoro said the PDP, Lagos chapter had a meeting recently at the party’s
state secretariat in Ikeja and they are all united.
He said, "As I speak with you, the Lagos PDP is one big family."
According to him, the All Progressives Congress(APC) is not united.
"What you are looking at as unity in their party is peace of the
graveyard. An honest member of their party will tell you all is not well in
that party either. All what you see them doing is make belief. With time, you
will also come to this conclusion. They will be torn apart. In a system where a
single person determines who become the councillor, council chairman, members
of the National Assembly and state Houses of Assembly, including the
governor, then you should know that the alleged peace in their party is that of
the graveyard. Do you think the market women and men in the state are happy
that the same man anointed his daughter to become the leader of market women
and men in the state? People like us cannot just stand by and allow all these
to go unchallenged," he said.
