PDP Leaders to Makinde: We Don’t Want to Be Sold Cheaply to APC

Leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State have pleaded with the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, to stop the moves to overturn the outcome of the party’s governorship primary won by Wole Oluyede.

Naija News reports that PDP leaders, led by Deji Ogunsakin, Segun Adeola, Makanjuola Ogundipe, and Kola Oluwawole, appealed during a press conference held in Ado-Ekiti at the party’s secretariat in the Ajilosun area.

The leaders implored Makinde and the PDP leaders at the national level to halt the planned moves by the party’s enemies to overturn the people’s choice.

According to the leaders, Wole Oluyede is the people’s choice, and the All Progressives Congress (APC) is aware that the party has selected a credible candidate.

The leaders said, “We have decided to win the 2026 June 20 governorship election in Ekiti.

“Enough is enough. We do not want anybody to sell us cheaply to the APC. APC is aware that we have chosen a credible candidate that can win the 2026 election for us; that is Dr Wole Oluyede, who won the PDP primary.

“They are trying to overturn the results in favour of somebody that was not accepted at the polls.

“The people have voted; they voted for their conscience. They voted for the man they believed in who can give the PDP victory at the polls.

“The election was conducted, and the results were announced by Sen. Ibrahim Dankwabo, former governor and former accountant general of the federation (AGF), under a peaceful and credible atmosphere.”
