The Ogun State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has elected a new chairman, Mr. Abayomi Tella, to steer the affairs of the party for a resounding success.

Tella promises to rejuvenate, rebuild, and reposition the party for victory in the next election.

Tella acknowledged the limited statutory positions in the party’s constitution and commended the internal mechanism adopted by leaders to prevent irreconcilable outcomes.

He emphasized the need for Ward and Local Government Executives to activate their responsibilities, projecting the party’s image in their area.

Tella criticized the current administration in Ogun State, citing poor performance, infrastructural decay, and rising poverty levels.

He pledged that the PDP would dislodge the current government in 2027, restoring the state’s noble heritage.

Regarding the Edo election, Tella expressed disappointment at being “rigged out of power” and urged the Electoral Body to ensure independence and conduct credible elections.

He advocated for easier voter registration, comparing the current process to obtaining a US Visa .

“O the current administration in the State, Tella said “We promise!!! The PDP Ogun State is aware of the poor performance that has charactecharacterizednce in our dear State. The level of acumen available to the current government in evidently worsening the level of infrastructural decay and raising poverty level in the State which means that tremendous workload is awaiting us when we eventually dislodge them from office in 2027”.

He added “The people of Ogun State do not deserve this level of mediocrity in government judging from our history as a people of noble birth and charitable pedigree and identity”.

He said “We are using this opportunity to plead and admonish the Electoral Body to up their skills at ensuring that they are truly independent and are capable of conducting elections that the entire nation will be proud of. I want to advise the Commission to take voter’s registration more seriously by ensuring that registration of voters is no longer as difficult as it is presently. Registration of voters is currently more difficult than securing a US Visa”.

“One wonders why getting an ATM card with financial and security features should be a lot easier than getting a PVC or its replacement. This difficulty is a technical way of discouraging people from participating in our electoral processes and of course rubbing the process of the much needed credibility.

The entire globe is expecting a much better electioneering process from us and the responsibility to meet this expectation rest heavily on the INEC”, he stated.

According to him, “We shall continue to anticipate a much more responsible, transparent and truly independent INEC in our future elections.

I want to use this opportunity to assure our people that the PDP will be better positioned to win the next election in Ogun State”.

On conduct of the congresses in the State, he said “the Congresses in the State have been quite tranquil, free, fair, transparent and credible. It appeared to be the most inclusive Congress the Party ever had and commendation should be credited to our natural leaders for adopting the ingenious idea of having a rancour free Congresses at all levels”.

He added “Though, some people are patronising the media and the Courtroom again to discredit the party and the efforts of the leader of the Party, we want to plead with them to desist from this ignoble mission and retrace their steps. The umbrella is large enough to accommodate all of us and enable us to realise our varying ambitions. The era of judicial ambush is no longer fashionable, obsolete and gone forever”.

On the unity of the PDP in the State, Tella stressed “The Party will do well if it does not harbour indiscipline and unrepentant dissident within its fold. A firewood that harbour ants, will definitely dismember itself from the burning flame.

The responsibility to deliver the State starts today and we are set to achieve this feat without fear. I want to implore my compatriots to be focused, determined and purposeful in the discharge of their duties as executive members of our great Party. The atmosphere is good for us and harvesting the opportunity of returning to power is much more possible now than ever. He concluded.
