About 24 hours after Governor Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo State dumped the Labour Party, LP, for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, reports say some members of the PDP in the state gathered at the party’s secretariat on Oyemekun Road in Akure to protest the defection of the governor.
According to our source, the protesters, who came from 18 local government areas of the state, chanted songs and castigated the PDP’s state executive officials for welcoming the governor back to the party.
Before joining the LP, Mimiko abandoned the PDP in 2006 after accusing the party of lacking “internal democracy”.
It was gathered that some of the aggrieved protesters described the Mimiko’s return to the PDP as an “infection,” comparing it to the “Ebola virus disease.”
According to the protesters, the governor’s defection to the PDP would further deepen the crisis that was already besetting the party in the state since the governor’s plan to defect became public.
The PDP protesters stated that they would not allow Mimiko to hijack the leadership of their party.
Some of the protesters said they were angered that the leadership of the party in Abuja had not consulted them before welcoming Mimiko.

The protesters opined that they were aggrieved that their party immediately welcomed Governor Mimiko without probing his past.
