Media personality, Babajide Kolade-Otitoju has given reasons Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde did not purchase the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential form.
Speaking during an interview programme on TVC, on Thursday, Kolade-Otitoju said Makinde knows he would not be on the ballot if he did not join the Allied Peoples Movement, APM.
He dismissed the noise about merger, saying there is no merger without the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
“Why did Makinde and his Bauchi State counterpart, Bala Mohammed not get presidential form from the Taminu Turaki-led Peoples Democratic Party, PDP?
“Forget all the noise about the merger, you cannot do a merger without the regulator INEC.
APC had a merger back then, around 2013, but not in this form. “You can’t just wake up one morning and say we’re merging because you lost the power play,” he said.
