A group, under the auspices of Team Ariyo Atoye, has condemned the undemocratic manner through which the endorsement of a successor for governor Fayose in the upcoming gubernatorial election in the state.
The group stated this in a press release it issued to the press on Thursday, while describing the process as “hasty and undemocratic” by a purported group of few stakeholders, lamented that this manner of selection runs contrary to the principle of fair play and open democratic contest which the party stands for.
The group, therefore, calls for an immediate reversal and urge all stakeholders to put their hands together to make sure that the dream of the party should not be left in the hands of a selected few.
The Eagle Online reports that Ariyo Atoye is also contesting for the gubernatorial ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2018 election.
