...Martins-Kuye, Onabiyi,
Otegbola step aside
Chieftains of the Ogun
State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday moved to solidify
the ongoing reconciliation among the various factions of the party with the
emergence of former Governor Gbenga Daniel and party financier, Prince Buruji
Kashamu as leaders of the party in the state.
The leaders who converged
on the Victoria Garden City (VGC) Lagos residence of the former Minister of
Commerce and Industry, Senator Jubril Martins-Kuye unanimously chose Daniel and
Kashamu as party leaders.
The erstwhile leaders of
the party – Martins-Kuye, Alhaji Sule Onabiyi and Senator Ayo Otegbola –
stepped aside to allow for a more dynamic and vibrant leadership.
Some of the highlights of
the over four-hour meeting was the resolved by all the factions to collapse
into one united “PDP family” under the Engr. Adebayo Dayo-led State Executive
Committee (Exco).
The party leaders
reiterated their assertion that the Dayo-led Exco was the validly and
democratically elected Exco.
Some of the party
chieftains at the meeting were Chief Kola Ogunjobi, Chief (Mrs) Iyabo Apampa,
Chief Niyi Adegbenro, Chief ‘Pegba Otemolu, Chief Dayo Abatan and Alhaji Semiu
Sodipo.
Others included Chief
Duro Otesanya, Alhaji Sarafa Tunji-Ishola, Senator Lekan Mustapha, Hon. Dave
Salako and Senator Tunde Osholake.
