Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has called for the resignation of the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Sen. Iyorchia Ayu, adding that the National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP should be restructured.

Makinde stated this today at the PDP South-West stakeholders meeting in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.

In his words, “Our party wants to rescue Nigeria and our candidate is a unifier. He wants to restructure Nigeria.”

“Eight years of the All Progressives Congress have left us sharply divided. The issue is we must practice what we preach. If we want to unify Nigeria, we must unify the PDP first.”

“If we want to restructure Nigeria, we must have the willingness to bring inclusivity to the PDP. Do we have the capacity? The answer is a resounding yes.”

“The message from the South-West PDP is that the South-West is asking that the National Working Committee of the PDP should be restructured.”

“We are asking the national chairman to step down so that the south will be fully included. That is the message,” Governor Makinde stated.
