Adebutu tackles Wike: If you can’t accept Ayu, leave PDP, form another party

Governorship candidate of the the People’s Democratic Party, PDP in Ogun state, Hon. Ladi Adebutu has asked the Governor Nyesom Wike of River state and others aggrieved PDP governors to leave and form another party if they are not ready to accept Iyorchia Ayu as the national chairman of the party.

Adebutu made this assertion while addressing non-indigene residents in Ogun at a gathering in Abeokuta during the weekend.

He stated that those who could not abide by the decision of a party are free to leave or form their own party.In a veiled reference to the governors, Wike of Rivers, Seyi Makinde of Oyo and Sam Ortom of Benue, Adebutu said, “Unlike those that don’t understand that the party is supreme, that Iyorchia Ayu is our ‘oga,’ they don’t recognize that he has the power to hire and fire, we accept his leadership.

“By the Supreme Court judgements severally pronounced, those that don’t like your party has a few choices, they can either abide, go and form their own party or get out! We have chosen to abide by and obey Ayu’s dictates.

“We agree he is our chairman. We agree that Hon. Sikirulahi Ogundele is our leader in Ogun and he is representing Iyorchia Ayu. We agree to submit ourselves to the National Working Committee of the party. Those that don’t abide should go and form their own party,” he said.

While addressing Igbo, Hausa, Igede, Ijaw, Idoma supporters of Atiku in the state, Adebutu maintained that Nigerians remain one big family regardless of tribe or religion. Vanguard
