Anyone who wants to hold down the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, should feel free to leave, ‘Seyi Makinde, governor of Oyo State has said.
The two-term governor made this known in an interview in Akure, the Ondo State capital while keynoting the colloquium organised to mark the 10th anniversary of the Deji of Akure, Oba Aladetoyinbo Ogunlade, Odundun II.
He spoke hours after the party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar, dumped the PDP officially for the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
This was just as Makinde explained that the goal of the PDP and the ADC, in trying to unseat the All Progressives Congress, APC, is the same, adding that everyone is free to belong to whatever party they want but should put the country’s interest first.
He reiterated that the PDP could not be threatened by any political party, because it has become an enduring institution.
