The National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Dayo Adeyeye has urged the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose to respect the party’s decisions and shelve his presidential ambition.
Adeyeye, who made the call while responding to Governor Fayose’s public declaration of his interest to contest the 2019 presidential elections under the party said the governor should respect the party’s decision to zone the exalted ticket to the north.
He further advised Fayose to contest for the National Chairmanship of the party which has been zoned to the south and stop wasting his time, energy and resources since the party cannot allow a non-northerner fly its 2019 presidential ticket.
“The highest organ of the party which is the National Convention, zoned the presidential ticket of the PDP to the North. That has not changed. The same National Convention zoned the position of the National Chairman to the south. The convention has yet to change any of these two.
“That National Convention is the supreme organ of the party. Those decisions are binding on all members of the party. Nobody can alter these decisions. The governor is a member of the party and was at the convention where these decisions were taken,” Adeyeye said.
“As a leader of the party, one expected the governor to respect the party and its decisions. If someone in such an office is breaking the decisions of the party, what do you expect from the rank and file?,” he querried.
