Fayose vs Makinde: PDP moves to reconcile South-West members
The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says it plans to organise South-West stakeholders to resolve the zone’s crisis ahead of its zonal congresses.
The PDP said this in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in Abuja.
Mr Ologbondiyan said the NWC had scaled up reconciliation processes in the South-West after an extensive meeting.
“Consequent upon this, the NWC further resolved that a meeting comprising the national chairman, deputy national chairman, national secretary, Sen. Bukola Saraki-led reconciliation and strategic committee, Gov. Seyi Makinde, and former Gov. Ayo Fayose, be held immediately for urgent resolution of all issues concerning the South West,” he said.
The PDP is facing a leadership crisis in the South-West over the party’s authentic leader in the zone.
