*Olujimi petitions Secondus, wants Campaign Council dissolved

The presidential campaign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State looks set for a bumpy ride as the rivalry between immediate past governor of the state, Ayodele Fayose and the Senate Minority Leader, Chief Biodun Olujimi, has taken the center stage as the state chapter of the Presidential Campaign Council was inaugurated Monday.

Senator Olujimi, who has kicked against the composition of the state chapter of the campaign council, has consequently petitioned the National Chairman of the party, Chief Uche Secondus, calling on the party’s National Working Committee to disband and reconstitute Atiku Abubakar Campaign Council in Ekiti State.

Olujimi, who has been in running battle with Fayose over the leadership of the PDP in the state, accused the former governor of allegedly hijacking the council and filling the body with those she referred to as Fayose’s cronies.

In the petition dated January 6, 2019, and signed by herself, she held that only immediate dissolution of the council she said was “highly lopsided” would “avert unnecessary cleavages in Ekiti PDP.”

According to Olujimi, who is also the party’s candidate in the February 6 election, failure to accede to the request could mar the party’s electoral chances in the state.

Olujimi said: “The original composition had Professor Olusola Kolapo as chairman; Otunba Yinka Akerele as Director-General, and Chief Sanya Atofarati as Spokesperson/Director of Media among others while the position of Secretary did not exist in the original composition by the National Directorate.”

But Olujimi said she was rejecting a team that was recently announced in the media, which also has Professor Olusola as chairman but has Chief Dipo Anisulowo as Director General; Chief Gboyega Oguntuase as Secretary; Jackson Adebayo as Spokesperson and Lere Olayinka as Director, Media and Publicity.”

Olujimi claimed that Fayose had hijacked the council, placed his cronies in all strategic positions allegedly with the sinister intention to sideline other members of the party from participating in mobilising for the PDP presidential candidate during the election.

She therefore charged Prince Secondus to compel Fayose, who is the South West Coordinator of the Atiku campaign, “to adhere strictly to the resolution reached by stakeholders on how the council should be composed at a stakeholders’ meeting held in Ado Ekiti on December 28, 2018 to forestall cracks and crisis in the party ahead of the much-awaited polls.”

Olujimi said in the petition: “It should be understood that this is another orchestrated plan of former Governor Ayo Fayose to convert the party’s resources and fortunes to his personal enterprise as usual.

“He did it during the last governorship election and our party paid dearly for it in spite of my advice, warnings and outcry. Once beaten is twice shy.

“The publication reportedly cited the cronies and stooges of Mr Ayo Fayose as Chairman, Secretary, Director General, Spokesperson, Director of Media & Publicity among others.

“This is most unacceptable as Ekiti people and Nigerians cannot afford to lose this golden opportunity to change the APC-led maladministration both at the national and state levels for one person’s self-centeredness.”

She claimed that changes were made to members of Atiku/Obi Campaign Council for Ekiti State without notifying the stakeholders, describing such as “demeaning and mischievous.”

She warned that, “if he (Mr Ayo Fayose) fails to comply with the above, we shall be left with no other option than to take appropriate actions that will reflect the wish of the people as agreed in the meeting of the Campaign Council at the PDP State Secretariat and chaired by Professor Olusola Kolapo, the Campaign Council Chairman on 28 December, 2018.”

Olujimi is the leader of the pdp in ekiti by constitutional provision, no need for political muscle flexing.

Shameful how a party that wishes to lay claim to the electoral mandate can't even respect it's own constitution. Or is it because she's a woman? Or because fayose still has looted funds stashed in some corners?

Shameless party!

As e dey pain them for Ekiti PDP, e dey sweet us for the other side.

Even if Fayose takes over as chairman of the campaign and Olujimi as DG, PDP will still lose massively in Ekiti next month. The party is as good as dead in the state as we speak.

Nairalanders you all should be careful when dealing with people.

This dude called Nobelus Cabral scammed me of 800 euros two weeks ago. He promised to pay back by 27th of December when he gets his Paycheck by December 27th but when it was time to pay he blocked me on Facebook, and blocked my 3 numbers on WhatsApp.

The dude reside in Georgia USA and he's feeling that there's nothing that can be done to get him down.
The Internet is a world of its own when I'm done tarnishing this fraudster image he will sure get deported.

You think you can scam me of my hard earned 800 euros and go Scott free? Brother I'll tarnish your image everywhere.

Peedeepee as Radio ekiti do sound it grin


ogun and ekiti where PDP would have get high votes are struggling for party survival and yet Atiku expect to bank on them


in Lagos PDP had been deserted having jimi battling supremacy with bode George and other PDP stakeholders


do I need to talk about osun state that PDP members are even suing their own members. PDP in osun have been scoring home goal since the last governorship election


in Oyo state, is it Makinde that's politically lonely that would deliver for Atiku? makinde that's very much concern how to wrestle from APC and incumbent party that has no crisis in Oyo state that would deliver for Atiku?

if Atiku don't get upto 90% each from south south and south East, he should forget getting upto 40% in overall election



North is going to be a less battle for Buhari and PDP aren't doing much rigorous campaign as expected in North zones, instead they were monitoring APC campaigns and tapes grin


Feb 16, PDP and its supporters go dey OK las las las grin
