A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Okechukwu Osohua, has described as a mere Christmas carol and gathering of friends the November convention held in Ibadan, Oyo State.
Osohua made this statement on Tuesday when he appeared in an interview on ‘Sunrise Daily’, a programme on Channels Television monitored by our reporter.
“As far as I’m concerned, it was just a gathering of friends, and I can even call it a Christmas Carol because it was not known to law; there was no convention,” he said.
A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Okechukwu Osohua, has described as a mere Christmas carol and gathering of friends the November convention held in Ibadan, Oyo State.
Osohua made this statement on Tuesday when he appeared in an interview on ‘Sunrise Daily’, a programme on Channels Television monitored by DAILY POST.
“As far as I’m concerned, it was just a gathering of friends, and I can even call it a Christmas Carol because it was not known to law; there was no convention,” he said.
TRUMPET reports that the PDP held the convention between November 15 and 16 in the South-Western state.
Recall that at the event, the group, backed by Governor Seyi Makinde, expelled the Minister of FCT, Nyesom Wike; former governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, and Samuel Anyanwu, among others.
The group cited anti-party activities as the basis for the decision, further dividing the PDP.
The party later issued a certificate of expulsion to Wike and the expelled members.
However, Osohua said the expulsion was driven by selfish interest. According to him, the expulsion certificate is novel and unknown to the law.
