The Peoples Democratic Party in Ondo state has disowned a statement credited to the former spokesman of the southwest chapter of the party, Mr Ayo Fadaka which asked the Deputy Governor of Ondo state, Mr Agboola Ajayi, to resign from office for defecting to the PDP from All Progressive Congress.

The disclaimer was contained in a statement by Zadok Akintoye, the party’s director of publicity (as seen below)

“Our attention has been drawn to a statement made by Mr. Ayo Fadaka in his capacity as a former South West Publicity Secretary of the PDP via an interview granted to Channels Television on Sunrise Daily, wherein he opined that the Deputy Governor and member of the PDP, HE. Hon Agboola Ajayi should resign his position on moral grounds.

The Ondo state PDP wishes to dissociate itself from this statement and inform the general public that the position expressed by Mr. Ayo Fadaka does not represent the opinion of the PDP in Ondo state. H.E. Barr. Agboola Ajayi remains the Deputy Governor of the state and is not under any compulsion (either moral or legal) to resign his position.

The party therefore advice the general public to disregard this statement as it is does not reflect the position of the party on this matter.

Thank you.

Zadok Akintoye
Dir. of Media & Publicity

But he is actually supposed to resign morally. When u leave a party its because the party's ideologies doesn't tally with yours anymore so you honorably resign ur position first before you move to another party to avoid conflict of interests. But alas naija parties and politicians are simply are about selfish interest devoid of ideologies and merits
