Honourable Sikiru Sanda, the chairman of Egbeda Local Government Area of Ibadan and the chairperson of Oyo ALGON has appealed to factional members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to sheath their swords and work for the progress of the party.
The Chairman further stated that the congress held at the Lekan Salami Sport Complex, Adamasingba which produced Mr Dayo Ogungbenro as the Oyo state PDP chairman is the authentic and recognised congress approved by the party’s hierarchy.
He, however, stated that the party will work towards reconciling the aggrieved members who are dissatisfied while reiterating that the party is big enough to accommodate all.
He said, “The PDP is a strong and structured party that has been in existence since 1998 and it is not right to go against the constitution of the party. We must just learn to work together with the governor to move the party and Oyo state forward’’.
