A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Oyo State, Alhaji AbdulRasheed Adebisi, has said that he told former governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola of Osun that Governor Seyi Makinde is not treating members of the party as expected.
As part of efforts aimed at ensuring that absolute peace returns to the PDP in Yorubaland, Oyinlola, who chairs theSouth-West PDP reconciliation committee had visited Olopoeyan’s Bashorun, Ibadan residence on Tuesday.
This was after OYOINSIGHT.COM had exclusively reported the sweet-turned-sour relationship between Makinde and Olopoeyan, as Adebisi is fondly called.
Olopoeyan, who briefed journalists on the sideline of Oyinlola’s visit, also noted that it was too early to make known details of the meeting, because, according to him, the committee was yet to conclude on the numerous visits to the aggrieved stakeholders.
“I was actually not aware the committee members were coming but I really appreciate their visit. There is no doubt about the fact that their visit centred on my complaints about governor Seyi Makinde and his negative disposition to the stakeholders and a good number of members of the party.
“I used the opportunity of the meeting to share my thoughts about happenings in the party and make known my grievance about how the governor had been treating and handling the party since he came to power.”
He, however, informed that the committee was yet to reach a notable compromise as members promised to get back to him after the completion of the assignment.
Oyinlola, who spoke earlier, had noted that he was at Olopoeyan’s residence as part of a move to reconcile all aggrieved stakeholders in the party within the South-West zone and Olopoeyan is actually one of those needed to get across to in order to make headway.
