Distraught Ondo Deputy Governor, Hon Agboola Ajayi, has shunned the ongoing state congress of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) holding in Akure.
The Deputy Governor joined the PDP in June but refused to resign from office while the Chief Judge of the state also refused to constitute a panel for his impeachment. He later contested the party primary but lost to Eyitayo Jegede.
After the loss, Ajayi denied plans to leave the party for the Zenith Labour Party. But his campaign posters of the Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) have surfaced even though he is to resign from the PDP.
A close aide said Ajayi was not in Akure.
Voting has however commenced at the PDP state congress.
Outgoing Acting Chairman of the Ondo PDP, Engr. Clement Faboyede, said he expected the winners to embrace all contestants. He said the peaceful conduct
of the exercise showed the PDP was different from other political parties.
Faboyede stated the party wants to go into the governorship a united family.
