The National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prof Wale Oladipo, has claimed that contrary to media reports, he was not chased out of the national secretariat of the party on Wednesday.
Some PDP youths had stormed the Wadata Complex of the party early on Wednesday morning chanting anti-Sheriff slogans and barricaded staffers inside until they later gained entrance and drove out the workers, locked the offices and handed over the keys to Chief Raymond Dokpesi, member of the party’s Board of Trustees.
But Oladipo in a statement he personally signed said he actually resumed duty at the party secretariat in the morning alongside the National Auditor of the party, Alhaji Adewole Adeyanju.

According to him, he witnessed the activities of some “miscreants” who invaded the party secretariat to cause trouble over nothing.
He insisted that he voluntarily left the office after he was done with his work.
“The news that I was chased out of office is a lie. No one touched me, nor was I in anyway compelled to vacate office.
“I left office when I was through with all I needed to do, same with the National Auditor who came to my office before he took his leave.

“I wish to advice all PDP members to discountenance the fake news peddled by the enemies of our Party, surely we shall soon get over the get over the internal schism in our party””.
“I also want to appeal to all parties to this conflict to sheath their sword and refrain from all acts of lawlessness and embrace the rule of law as the only panacea to moving our Party forward.”
