A pressure group within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), known as the
Kwara South PDP Integrity Group, has described as “entirely false, misleading,
null and void” the purported endorsement of Prof. Oba Abdulraheem by the Kwara
South PDP stakeholders as the party’s governorship candidate.
In a statement issued by a former Commissioner for Local Government and
Chieftaincy Affairs and a Kwara South PDP chieftain, Bisi Oloruntoba, the group
said: “Our attention has been drawn to a news item to the effect that the
stakeholders in Kwara South PDP have endorsed Professor Oba Abdulraheem as
candidate in the coming governorship election.
“We wish to dismiss the report as entirely false, misleading and, therefore,
null and void. This is because at no point did stakeholders in the PDP meet to
endorse any candidate.
“We are quick to point out that while Prof. Oba’s supporters are free to
sell their principal, it is a mischief taken too far to dignify their
individual interest by calling it an endorsement by Kwara South PDP
Stakeholders.
