By Adeleke Maria  In a move to strengthen the People’s Democratic Party, (PDP) in Ibarapa East Local Government and enhance unity and cooperation amongst members, the Speaker of Oyo State House of Assembly, Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin, has held a series of strategic meetings with leaders and members of the party. In the last four days, Hon. Ogundoyin met with PDP stakeholders and constituents at different venues across Eruwa and Lanlate towns. These meetings brought together key party leaders, including Chief Adewale Atanda Alase, Oyo State Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Wasilat Adegoke, Alh. Kasali Morakinyo, Chief Abegunde, Dr. Adedokun Daniel, Alh Adebisi Sikiru (Party Chairman), Alh Kamorudeen Adeyemi (Senatorial Chairman), and Mrs. Adebisi Yetunde, among others. Hon. Ogundoyin emphasized the importance of unity, urging members to prioritize cooperation and avoid spreading false information that could harm the party’s reputation. He stressed that the party’s strength lies in its ability to work together towards a common goal and cautioned PDP members in the Local Government against unnecessary bickering over sharing of party political posts and positions. According to the Speaker, if PDP in the Local Government wishes to remain stronger and consolidate on its political gains, it must close ranks, speak with one voice, and never allow internal wranglings to fester beyond control. While admitting that there will occasionally be misunderstandings and unnecessary instigation of crisis by some unscrupulous individuals, the Speaker urged the leadership of the party in the council to always engage in dialogue and consultation in resolving issues. “It was a 4-day productive meetings and engagements with leaders, elders and party faithful in Ibarapa East Local Government. I am happy that PDP in Ibarapa East Local Government has again laid the foundation for a stronger and a more united front. The meetings were productive, with various issues raised and addressed. “There were clarifications and records were set straight. Issues likely to cause dis-affection and disunity were discussed and resolved. Aggrieved members were pacified and contentious issues settled amicably. This move is important to avoid division and crisis which could undermine the strength and success of our party in future elections in our Constituency.” Oyo Speaker said. At the end of the meetings, PDP members in Ibarapa East State Constituency reaffirmed their loyalty to Chief Adewale Atanda Alase as the overall Leader of the party in Ibarapaland and agreed to continue working together for the upliftment of the party and all its members.
