The crisis at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has further escalated today with the decision to shunt aside, the national secretary, former governor of Osun state Olagunsoye Oyinlola who was suddenly removed via a court order last week.
A fiat released by PDP chair, Bamangar Tukur via a terse press release said a deputy national secretary Solomon Onwe is orderedto resume the office as “Acting National Secretary” immediately
Onwe was Deputy National Secretary of the PDP prior to his appointment by Tukur today.

It serves him right. Greedy fellow, Infact let them unleash EFCC on him. Oyinlola is a disgrace!

Now let the war begin,its obvious tukur can't even wait for the outcome of the appeal before going ahead to show how poor a leader he is.This is so sad to imagine this is coming from National Chairman of africa's biggest party.This is definitely the beginning of biggest trouble for GEJ.

This ordinarily shouldn't be a big deal...Secretary is unavailable..Deputy acts.

Why the chairman had to announce it personally is..the sweet part. PDP is taking serious blows

The only escalated crisis I see here is the one orchestrated by Sahara Reporters, PDP is only allowing the rule of law to take its natural cause, hence the appointment of Barr. Solomon Onwe in ACTING capacity...

Nature abhors a vacuum and this should be seeing as a stopgap, the position of the National Secretary is still zoned to the South West.

Ok,waiting for some sycophants to come here and tell us that Buhari and Tinubu has a hand in what is happening in pdp at d moment.Truth is,pdp is d bigest enemy of Nigeria and their cup is full.They have really destroyed this Nation but quick to point accusing fingers on opositions.The prayers and curses of d masses have gone up to God,and this is just d begining of pdp waterloo.We may not have a revolution afterall,enough innocent blood have been wasted already,instead they will destroy themselves by theirselves.GEJ and OBJ faceoff is d triger that will destroy pdp.Nigeria will outlive her enemies.

Nonsense from ediots. Down with PDP.

fkaz: PDP is heading towards golgotha.

They should tell us if they need help to speed it up...

And the drama continues. Its a season film filled with a lot of suspense and intrigues, starring GEJ, OBJ, PDP governors and Tukur.

Even when GEJ has not lifted a finger, the ENEMIES have started falling like pack of card.

One of them has fallen 'yakata' on the ground and is currently on life support, and from all indication, this one is DOWN AND OUT.

Who's NEXT?

Lwkmd!

Gej is blind enough to see the plans of the hausa man(Tukur)..he's planning to destroy pdp inwardly to give room for more weaknesses in the party..Good work Tukur u are a true aboki man,power must get back to north

Demdem: Interesting and welkom development from the killer party no doubt.

Come to think of it, if a lower court ask a governor to vacate his seat and he immediately appeals to an higher court, does the governor vacate his seat pending when his appeal is finally adjudicated?
Surely, Retardeen has given the Mallam some kai-kai. he is going mad.

That simply shows its a divided house. They could have waited and rallied round Oyinlola to see if his stay of execution pending appeal scales through in the usual "family affair" manner.
