The Ekiti State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has warned the delegation led by the former Governor of Osun State, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, not to visit the state.
Naija News reports that Oyinlola and his committee were billed to visit the South-west state to broker peace.
But in a statement by the State Publicity Secretary of the party, Raphael Adeyanju, the party warned members to shun the delegation.
He stated that the party was unaware of the panel, hence it has no loco standi to mediate in the party’s internal crisis.
He said: “Our attention has been drawn to a meeting scheduled for Saturday in Ado Ekiti by Prince Oyinlola under the guise of a non-existing reconciliation committee.
“We wish to state that the State Working Committee (SWC) of the PDP in Ekiti State is not aware of such meeting.
“Therefore, all members of the PDP in Ekiti State are enjoined to shun the meeting as it is obviously another of the plots by Prince Oyinlola and his paymaster in Ibadan, Oyo State to cause division in the party.
“Here in Ekiti, concerted efforts are being made to resolve issues among the stakeholders and as a follow up to the meeting held in Abuja on Monday, another meeting will be held in Lagos on Monday, next week.”
