Press Statement
*ALEX AJIPE: Expected Outburst Of A Politically Sinking Man
Our attention has been draw
into an odious and repugnant statement made by a presumptuous element which ordinarily should not have elicited any response but for the voting public who may think being used as a conduit pipe in government is tantamount to having political experience and authority.
A critical perusal and appraisal of the statement would certainly show that Alex Ajipe made the statement in a spirited attempt to shore up his waning reputation and deteriorating politcal relevance among his party members who perharps suspect him to be working against APC.
While we cannot but sympathize with a man whose sharp rise to political limelight during Governor Rotimi Akeredolu’s administration is in the same manner, taking a sharp downward trend to political oblivion even before the expiration of the same administration that lifted him out of obscurity, we find it extremely amusing that Alex Ajipe could chose to play his relevance card using a party which has not changed in structure, texture and feature since it was formed in 1998 and which did not only have solid and enviable party structures but also left institutional structures like EFCC, ICPC, globally competitive economy in its sixteen years of governance in Nigeria.
The question will be: if PDP has no structure as being peddled by this politically sinking man, is it then APC, a platform of strange bedfellows with members drawn from a mutinous wing of AD led by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu which first metamorphosed to AC and later to ACN before it finally found itself in APC, an association of strange fellows from CPC, APGA, nPDP, APP and other rebellious and moribund political parties which registration had been revoked by INEC for lack of presence in the polity?
For the avoidance of any doubt, PDP in Ondo State is more prepared to repeat the feat it recorded in 2019 general elections when it trounced APC in a manner that left a sour taste in its mouth. This time around, the feat will be more resounding as the people have indicated their interest to join our party to rescue the nation from a clueless, confused, glutinous, covetous, avaricious and rapacious APC.
