Ex-Governor of Oyo State and National Chairmanship candidate in tomorrow’s National Convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has accused politicians who are jittery of his emergence as the National Chairman of the party of spearheading the rumour that he has withdrawn from the race.
Ladoja, who spoke through his Media Aide, Mr. Lanre Latinwo, accused aspirants who were jittery of his ever rising national acceptance as the preferred man for the job of being behind the report.
Ladoja said “We are not surprised this is coming from them. Momentum is building very rapidly for the convention and many more of this kind of fabricated story will be dished out by losing groups and aspirants.
“Senator Ladoja has weighed all options before throwing his hat into the ring. As a former BOT member, he knows what the ideals upon which the party was built and will restore those ideals when elected.
“In national politics, Ladoja is well known for his principled stand against unfairness. As national chairman of the PDP, Wadata Plaza will not be turned into a casino where money will exchange hands and democracy and people will be discarded.”
He added that, “This is why well-meaning leaders and members are clamouring for the emergence of Senator Ladoja as the man to lead the party to a glorious restoration at this critical period”.
