Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has called on the leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party to come together and salvage Nigeria from the ruling All Progressives Congress.

Makinde said the 2027 general elections would be between the APC and Nigerians, and not the PDP.

Speaking at the inauguration of the late Olusoji Adagunodo Zonal Secretariat of the party in Ibadan, Makinde said his next political agenda would be determined by nobody but himself.

Makinde said Nigerians would be the determinant of the next leadership of the country, urging PDP leaders to look inward, work together, and salvage the country.

He said, “If you are accusing the ruling party that they are the ones sponsoring crisis in other parties so there will be no opposition in 2027, my position is, there are certain things that you have under your control.

“It is beyond the ruling party. So please, let us all work together, and unite our base, that is all that we need to do.

“The next election will be APC versus Nigerians. It is not even about APC versus PDP. So, let us do our own bit to unite our party, unite our base, and let the people of Nigeria speak.”

In his remarks, the Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke said, “We must forget the past of division and unite for the good of our dear party. It is better for us to fight each other inside the Government House than outside. We must refocus attention on building strong administrative operational structures.”
