Members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, faction opposed to the leadership of Seyi Makinde, governor of Oyo State, have rented a parallel office.
Party leaders who spoke exclusively to OYOINSIGHT.COM said it was in preparation for the party’s congress coming up in few weeks.
OYOINSIGHT.COM had reported that all was not well with the PDP in the state as some legacy party members are not happy over their perceived exclusion from the running of the PDP by Makinde.
This newspaper understands that, before now, the party secretariat is located at Molete area of Ibadan, the state capital.
But on Saturday evening, photos surfaced of a parallel PDP office, located in the highbrow No 2 Okunola Abass Street, Bodija estate.
It is a few minutes drive from the Oyo State Government secretariat, where Makinde calls the shot.
Only few weeks ago, party members led by Hon. Mulikat Akande Adeola, Hon. Muraina Ajibola, Alhaji AbdulRasheed Adebisi Olopoeyan, Engr. Femi Babalola Jogor and others had convened a meeting of aggrieved party members from across the state to ‘salvage’ the party.
