PDP crisis worsens as faction stages protest in Lagos

Scores of supporters of Segun Adewale, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party in Lagos State, on Tuesday staged a protest at the party’s secretariat, asking Dr Adegbola Dominic, to stop parading himself as the Chairman of the party in the state.

Both Dominic, an ally of a former Deputy National Chairman of the party, Chief Olabode George and Adewale, popularly known as Aeroland, had addressed party faithful at different times at the secretariat, each affirming himself as the authentic chairman of the party in the state. “We are asking Dominic to stop parading himself as Chairman. He was appointed as interim Chairman in December 2018, as interim Chairman for 90 days and so his tenure has expired because we are now in April.

Oriyomi claimed Dominic was only out to serve certain interests in the party, saying members of the party in the state were with Adewale. He said Salvador dumped the party to join the All Progressives Congress in 2018 and he made attempts to step in as Chairman. He said he was now the Chairman as he was not sacked by any court and that his mandate would only expire in 2021.

He claimed Dominic with some elders of the party in the confessed not to have supported the governorship candidate, Mr Jimi Agbaje, during the elections. Adewale said he would only relinquish his position as ”Chairman” if the national leadership declared otherwise or a congress was organised to elect a new executive for the party in the state.
