Reactions won’t strop tracking the yesterday’s exit of
Nigeria’s former President, Olusegun Obasajo, from the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP).
After having served 8 years in the party, OBJ announced his quit and
publicly tore his membership card saying he would no longer stay in
politics. Following the unpleasant development the Ogun chapter of the
PDP announced the expulsion of the politician from the ruling party.
Commenting on the situation, Chariman of the Board of Trustees, Chief Tony Anenih, said the former President had the right to dump the party adding however that he would not be missed. Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose, was outraged by OBJ’s behaviour and called him “a man without honour”.
In the evening of February 16 the PDP issued an official statement on
the incident, in which the party expressed sadness over the move.
