Oyo State governor, ‘Seyi Makinde, has declared that the rancour-free South-West zonal congress of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is a signpost to how the party’s National Convention will go later in the year.

The governor lauded the zonal congress of the party, held at the Theophilus Ogunlesi Hall, University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, on Wednesday.

He said the conduct of the congress, held to elect the PDP zonal executives for the next four years, showed that the South-West will always lead the way in how democracy should be practiced

“This elective congress is basically a funfair for us; it is for us to show the way democracy should be practised in Nigeria. So, South-West is leading the way.

“We are about to witness a rancour-free elective congress. All the people that are supposed to be here are here.

“The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is here observing what we are doing and the security agents are here. This is democracy at its peak.

“I can only wish the party well. This is a foundation we are about to lay and I believe this would also show the way towards what the PDP will do at the National Convention,” Makinde said.

In his goodwill message, Osun State governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, also commended the peaceful congress, noting that the rancour-free process should be a lesson for other zones.

“Four years ago, things were not like this. But today, I am very happy today and we can give glory to God Almighty for making it possible for us.

“We want to send a signal to other states that in the South-West, we speak with one voice.

“My brother [Governor ‘Seyi Makinde] and I love each other and speak with one voice so that other zones can emulate us.

“Everybody came from different places to the capital city of the Western Region and, of course, the capital city of South-West. This is a city full of history and another history has been made today.

“All the people that were elected today were chosen without rancour,” Governor Adeleke said.

The governors’ position came against the backdrop of the congress, where delegates from Oyo, Osun, Ondo, Ekiti, Ogun and Lagos states re-elected the PDP National Vice Chairman (South-West), Alhaji Kamorudeen Ajisafe.

Similarly, Obagunwa Muyiwa was elected as the Zonal Secretary, while Alhaja Bosede Adedibu was re-elected as the Zonal Woman Leader.

Other executive members re-elected included Adeyemo Adetunji (Zonal Treasurer); Yaya Adeleke (Zonal Financial Secretary) and Atofarati Olusanya (Zonal Publicity Secretary), among others.

In his acceptance speech after he was declared validly elected, Alhaji Ajisafe promised not to deviate from the rules and regulations of the PDP, assuring that the party would work hard to win more states in the South-West.

He equally appreciated Governors Makinde and Adeleke for their support and encouragement, promising to serve meritoriously and move the party forward.

Earlier, Chairman of the South-West Zonal Electoral Committee and former governor of Akwa Ibom State, Udom Emmanuel, commended all the party leaders and stakeholders for their commitment and efforts to foster unity in the party.

The congress had in attendance leaders of the party from the zone, including former Deputy National Chairman (South), Chief Olabode George; members of the PDP BOT; members of the National Working Committee from the zone, serving and former National Assembly members; House of Assembly members and local government chairmen from the six states, among others.
