The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Ondo State Chapter says it has received the purported court action instituted against former Governor Olusegun Mimiko by a chieftain of the party, Bode Obanla as a rude shock.
The party said Mr. Mimiko, a two term Governor of Ondo State is not only a senior citizen in Ondo State but Nigeria at large.
The party said his return to the PDP was orchestrated by four Governors elected on the platform of our great party PDP under the leadership of Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal, Governor of Sokoto State and Chairman, PDP Governors' Forum.
The State Working Committee noted that the action of Bode Obanla is a great embarrassment to the party and necessary actions will be taken in due course.
The Party in a statement issued by its Publicity Secretary, Kennedy Ikantu Peretei, said Mr Obanla's action is a mere distraction that should be treated as such.
