Obasanjo’s Membership Card Had Expired, Says pdp by funcampus: 7:32am On Feb 25, 2015
Two weeks after former President Olusegun
Obasanjo tore his Peoples Democratic Party
membership card, the party claimed on Tuesday
that the card being held by the former President
had expired.
It said that the card hitherto owned by Obasanjo
was signed by the party’s former Acting National
Chairman, Alhaji Kawu Baraje.
Baraje has since left the party and he is now a
chieftain of the main opposition party, the All
Progressives Congress.
While declaring his leaving the party, Obasanjo
had asked the Chairman of the PDP in his ward at
Abeokuta, Mr. Usman Oladunjoye, to tear his
membership card.
Commenting on Obasanjo’s action, the National
Secretary of the party, Dr. Wale Oladipo, said the
card had been changed.
Oladipo spoke during a courtesy call on him by
some students, who claimed to be working for the
re-election of President Goodluck Jonathan.
He said the National Chairman of the party, Alhaji
Adamu Mu’azu, and himself signed the current
cards being used by the party members.
He said, “Baba (Obasanjo) is over 80 years and
my mother is around Obasanjo’s age and when
you reach that age, you do things that only you
can explain.
“Secondly, you will see that Baba did not tear our
card. He asked somebody ostensibly to do the
tearing and I am assuring you that the card that
was torn was not the current PDP card.
“The current PDP card is signed by Mu’azu and
Oladipo. So, the card he tore was a Baraje card
which we were going to destroy anyway. So, I
think Baba started it.”
He added that Obasanjo might have left the party
in order for it to have more followers.
Oladipo said, “Lastly, Baba is a very intelligent
man. When Baba was helping us, he knows that a
lot of people could have complained that they
could have voted for the PDP but Baba is there.
“You know when a big tree thrives in a big forest,
smaller trees cannot grow. If that big tree leaves,
10 to 20 smaller trees will grow.
“In politics, one big tree has a vote while 20 small
trees have 20 votes. If you do the arithmetic, I am
a scientist, I know that head or tail, it is a win-
win situation for the PDP.”
The party also vowed to shock the APC in the
South-West, where it said it would spring
surprises.
The Deputy National Chairman of the PDP, Uche
Secondus, stated this while speaking with
journalists in Abuja on Tuesday.
He said with the support which he said was
coming for the party, there was no way the party
would not win the presidential election.
Secondus said this was where the confidence was
coming from for the party and the President.
He said, “Look at our pedigree. A party that was
formed less than one year ago can’t win elections
with media vibes.
“Elections are won at polling units and we have
the pedigree and statistics that have shown from
1999 till date that we have been consistent.”
