The former governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, has bemoaned ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo’s exit from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
According to him, “If it were the time President Olusegun Obasanjo was still in the party, we would have gone to him and one way or the other, he would have resolved the crisis. Currently, there are many local champions in the party. The party no longer has a spirit.”
Daniel however, called on Ali Modu-Sheriff and Ahmed Makarfi-led factions of the party to sheathe their swords and unite for the interest of the party, especially to ensure PDP emerge victorious in 2019 election.
The former governor stated this when he spoke on a private radio station, Sweet FM, personality programme, in Abeokuta, tagged ‘Podium’.

“While I was the governor of Ogun State, Makarfi was a governor, also while I was still the governor, Ali Modu-Sheriff was also a governor. So the two of them are close to me. The two sides must work together, because the road to victory has no room for divisionism.
“It is not only the PDP that has crisis, the APC also has its own share of crisis. The only difference is that while, we in the PDP have not been able to manage our own, the APC has been able to manage their own,” he said.
