WERE AT COURTS FOR 20 MONTHS – DR.OLAFESO
BY
CHUKWUMA NWAEFULU
Speaking to caucus
members of People's Democratic Party (PDP) South West Zone at the Long Room
Hall, Welcome Center Motel Airport road, Lagos, the chairman, Dr. Eddy Olafeso
told the gathering that they spent 20 months at four different courts and that
finally the appeal court in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State Capital upheld the
leadership of Dr. Olafeso and his team as the authentic executives of People Democratic
Party (PDP) in the south west.
Dr.Olafeso painfully
narrated to the audience what difficulties and drawbacks the litigations had
caused the progress of the party in the south west.
But however, he did say
that he is very, very, very gladdened that the ugly case has been legally
sorted out in their favour. He says that this is the time to put behind all the
drawbacks that they had passed through in the past and pragmatically move the
party forward so that as 2019 general elections draw closer,(PDP) could win
back all the south west states and Aso Rock villa, Abuja.
He told the gathering
that the All Progressives Congress (APC) of President Muhammadu Buhari led
administration has failed all Nigerians because all political promises they
dished out to the electorate has not been fulfilled .
Dr. Olafeso urged his
members to positively work hard by closing ranks with the National body of
party at Abuja of which Chief Uche Secondus is the National Chairman.
He particularly
commended HE Dr. Ayodele fayose, the executive governor of Ekiti state for
uncommon doggedness of telling the truths to APC led administration of PMB and again
Dr. Olafeso also
praised the Lagos state PDP Chairman Hon Moshood Salvador for the sterling
efforts he and his team are working out policies to position the party above
all persons. He said that he visited Lagos and spent two days with Hon.
Salvador whereby they discussed issues that would bring great success to the
party.
Many goodwill messages
were received from members but, the elder statesman Chief Ebenezer Babatope
a.k.a Ebino Tosey gave out an inspiring goodwill message to members whereby he
encouraged them to be up and doing for the party as the 2019 general elections
draw nearer. He generally advised all and sundry to go back to their various
states and to rebuild the broken walls of PDP so that the down trodden masses
would key into the manifestoes of the party.
