PDP bombs Bode George

National Secretary of the Peoples Demo­cratic Party (PDP), Professor Wale Oladipo, has accused for­mer national vice-chairman of the party, Chief Bode George of playing divisive politics aimed at undermin­ing the party in the South- West zone.

Oladipo was reacting to a communique issued by the South-West zone of the party at the weekend, in Ekiti State where they demanded the res­ignation of national officers of the party.
The party’s national scribe, in a statement, faulted the res­olutions of the meeting as he noted, “that the content and tone of its resolution shows an orchestration by a few indi­viduals bent on sowing a seed of discord within the PDP fold in the zone.”
He further observed that the communiqué, in no way reflected the views of major­ity of those who attended the meeting, or tallied with the opinion of the generality of PDP members in the region.
Oladipo expressed indig­nation that Chief George and certain leaders of the party, who could not deliver their polling units to the PDP in the just concluded general elec­tions, could be instigating the sack of others, who delivered their wards in the South-West zone of the party.
The statement read in part: “Moreover, members of the PDP in Osun State, my prima­ry constituency, have already passed a vote of confidence on me in my capacity as the na­tional secretary.
“Furthermore, while some of those asking us to resign performed very poorly even in their polling units, it is on record that the national auditor and my humble self performed creditably and delivered our areas in the general elections.post by expdonaloaded.blogspot.com
“It is therefore, dishearten­ing that rather than joining other well-meaning members of our great party in support­ing the National Working Committee in the on-going re-engineering process to rebuild the PDP, some elders from our zone, particularly, a former Deputy National Chairman, Chief Olabode George, who should know, have instead, resorted to divisive politics by attempting to instigate our members against one another.
“What our party needs now in the South West and indeed across the country is for all hands to be on the deck as we work harmoniously in our de­termination to reposition the PDP to regain power in 2019.
“Our party members are by this, therefore, charged to watch out for individuals whose agenda is to sow seeds of discord and pave way for crisis within our fold for their selfish interests.
