THE Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo state, Chief Clement Faboyede, on Monday, begged the party’s leader and former Governor, Olusegun Mimiko, to rescind his decision to dump the party. Faboyede noted that the leadership role of the former governor in building the party and the state remained unequal in the annal of the state history. He said ” Mimiko remained our party leader, time changes, interaction might change too, but he will remain our leader and we have a great respect for him. We, at the Ondo PDP, are appealing and calling on former governor Olusegun Mimiko, to stay in the party and continue to provide leadership for the party in the state, so that our people can take various positions in the next election. He explained that the PDP remained the only platform that offers hope to the common man and to wrestle lower from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Muhammad Buhari in 2019.
