Ekiti 2022: No one can remove your names from the PDP delegates list – Segun Oni assures members

Ahead of the 2022 governorship election in Ekiti State, the former governor of the state and the leading governorship aspirant, Segun Oni, has assured members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, that no one can remove their names from the party’s delegates list.

Newsflash Nigeria learnt that the party’s governorship primary in the state will hold in January 2022.

The former governor gave the assurance on the back of alleged intimidation of delegates from some quarters on account of their association with some governorship aspirants.

“We have heard a series of complaints of intimidation, suppression of delegates. I want to assure you that PDP belongs to all, intimidation will be a thing of the past shortly,” Mr Oni promised.

The former governor, who hosted a PDP youth group in his Ifaki-Ekiti country home, tasked members of the party in the state to be steadfast and proactive ahead of the 2022 governorship election in the state.

He said PDP needs energetic and progressive youths with ideas that can transform the party positively.

“Having seen your encompassing programme, I do not doubt in my mind that this group means well to return power to the PDP in 2022,” he said.

Mr Oni then pledged the sum of N250,000 to support the proposed programme of the group and restated his commitment to more support and assistance.

“The onus is on us to amplify the good deeds of former governor Oni as a way of boosting his chances in the election,” he said.

The group later donated souvenirs, including about 2,500 Faze Caps and other materials, to Oni’s campaign Organisation.
