PDP chieftain slams calls for Fayose’s suspension
A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ekiti State, Lere Olayinka, has taken a swipe at some members of the party who are calling for the suspension of former Governor of the State, Ayo Fayose.
In a statement he personally issued on Thursday, Olayinka accused some members of the party of suffering from the impact of the election, alleging that the PDP has lost its “political steam” in the State due to poor leadership by some persons who he described as “political almajiris”.
Olayinka said, “I would have ignored those people whose horizon is not beyond noise making to attract the usual political Kobo Kobo. However, it has become necessary to let them know that their period of harvest has ended and they need to look for something else to do.”
He added, “This is a party that has lost its political steam and those presently controlling it should begin the shedding of their garments of arrogance so that the party can be prevented from total collapse.”
The former governor, Ayo Fayose, was suspended from the party over alleged anti-party activities during the 2023 general elections. His suspension was, however, reversed a few days later by the National Working Committee.
