Osun State Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, has said that the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), lost its relevance in the South-West,
after former President Olusegun Obasanjo who brought the party to the
region, tore his membership card.
Aregbesola stated this while on the campaign train soliciting for
votes for Senator Mudashir Husain at Ikire, in Irewole Local Government
Area of the state.
The Governor made it clear that the emergence of the All Progressives
Congress (APC) at the centre, had seen the end of PDP’s reign in the
country.
“Why will any sensible politician at this time will want to associate
with a party that is not only drowning but dead in the South-West.
“It will be an exercise in futility for anybody to now want to wake
up a dead horse through the July 8 Osun West Senatorial bye-election
when founding fathers of the party have not only deserted the party but
wouldn’t want to be associated with it.
“We are all living witnesses to how the former President openly at
his ward declared that the the PDP has gone beyond redemption, hence his
declaration of the obituary of the party with the symbolic trashing of
his membership card,” Aregbesola stated.
