The national leadership of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has urged Chief Bode George and other disgruntled chieftains of the party in Lagos state to put aside their personal and parochial differences and work with the executive committee in the state chapter.
George, a former Deputy National Chairman (South) of the PDP, had raised ethical issues over the composition of the said Exco.
In response, the party, in a statement on Monday by its spokesman, Kola Ologbondiyan, called on critical stakeholders and teeming members in Lagos state to close ranks.
It urged them to put aside all personal and parochial interests and work with the newly elected leadership to strengthen the party and provide Lagosians that credible platform to rescue their state from the strangulating and exploitative regime of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The party said it has noted a media publication credited to Chief George, wherein he reportedly made some allegations against the Prince Uche Secondus-led National Working Committee (NWC), with regard to the election of the Lagos State Executive Committee of the great party.
“Perusing the said publication, it is easily decipherable by all informed members and critical stakeholders that Chief George mixed up issues.
“We believe he did this inadvertently, and unfortunately came to an erroneous conclusion, probably because he does not have the correct facts on the matter at hand.
