A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olabode George, has warned that the party would no longer tolerate internal sabotage.
George gave the warning on Friday while speaking on Arise Television.
He challenged PDP’s dissenters, asking them to ship themselves out if they are progress terminators.
He charged PDP to take decisive action against members undermining its unity if it is to remain a credible opposition force ahead of its next national convention.
George added that the zoning committee, which was established by the party’s National Executive Committee, NEC, was mandated to review leadership arrangements across Nigeria’s geopolitical zones.
The former deputy national chairman of the party maintained that what was initially planned as a non-elective convention had been converted to an elective one because of internal crises and the resignation of some key officials.
“This particular convention that is coming would just have been a non-elective convention. But because of the crisis we have gone through, and the resignation of some of the principals, NEC decided it has to be an elective convention,” he said.
The ex-Ondo State military governor expressed frustration with members he described as disloyal, accusing them of undermining the collective interest of the party.
