The leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) have condemned the Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, for hosting the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu dring the latter’s campaign in Ibadan.
The governor was condemned in a tweet on Friday February 17, 2023.
The condemnation is coming after the influential PDP governor hosted Bola Ahmed Tinubu, at the state house in Ibadan.
The party accused Makinde of anti-party move, adding that when Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the PDP, visited Oyo State, Makinde failed to host or endorse him.
Below is the video of the meeting with Asiwaju.
According to the tweet, Governor Makinde’s action was described as anti-party behaviour that would come with enormous consequences.
“Few Weeks ago, Our Presidential Candidate Atiku Abubakar went to Campaign in Ibadan and Engr Seyi Makinde REFUSED to meet with him but today he HOSTED Tinubu and his Gang in his Office and also Endorsed him for President.
“This is against the Constitution of @OfficialPDPNig. There will surely be Consequences for this Anti Party Activity,” the tweet read.
Recall that Atiku Abubakar visited Ibadan for his campaign rally, but the governor was absent and did not host the former vice president at the state house.
Makinde is a member of the PDP G-5 governors who have vehemently called for restructuring the party’s leadership hierarchy in the build-up to the general elections.o
Gvernor Seyi Makinde of Oyo state has been cautioned that his anti-party actions will come with consequences.
