Nigeria: Ex-PDP Scribe Declares Party Dead in Kwara

31 December 2013

A former Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara State, Mr. Yemi Afolayan, Monday said the party had not only lost its status as the ruling party in the state but was also dead.

Afolayan, who made this assertion in Ilorin in a statement made available to journalists, said: "We do not envy him in his dream and fantasy that the PDP is still ruling the nation because we know that in reality a government that has lost touch with the electorate may still occupy the state house but in the hearts and minds of the people."
