PDP Candidate Steps Down From Election, Says Party Is Lawless

The Ogun State House of Assembly candidate for Abeokuta South 1 State Constituency on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Mr Solomon Enilolobo, has stepped down from the election this weekend describing his party as a sinking ship that will be laid to eternal rest this Saturday.

The effort by Enilolobo who said he was stepping down to support the second term bid of Governor Dapo Abiodun has, however, been challenged by a group of eight parties who it was gathered are forging an alliance to stop the governor’s second term bid.

In announcing his bid to step down from the race in which he was standing as the PDP candidate for Abeokuta 1 State Constituency, Enilolobo led his supporters to the Iperu-Remo residence of the governor where he formally decamped to the APC.

According to the candidate, the PDP in Ogun is not only lawless but also has total disregard for the rule of law.

He said: “PDP is a sinking ship, its wake has been concluded and will be finally laid to eternal rest on Saturday, March 18.

Meanwhile, about eight political parties have reportedly begun moves to form alliance ahead of the governorship election with the intention to adopt the governorship candidate of the Action Alliance, Dr Samuel Adeyemi as the consensus candidate in the state.

The parties which are members of the Inter-Party Advisory Committee and Conference of political parties have reportedly held a closed-door meeting in Abeokuta on the plan to adopt a Governorship candidate.
