A Fresh Start for Ogun State’s PDP
The Ogun State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has ushered in a new era with the election of Abayomi Tella as its chairman. Speaking at the party’s state congress in Abeokuta, Tella emphasized the need to rejuvenate, rebuild, and reposition the party for success in the upcoming polls. His leadership aims to restore the party’s heritage as a strong and ruling political party.
Tella’s election follows a tumultuous period for the party, which has faced internal strife and judicial interventions. In his first remarks as chairman, he acknowledged the challenges and expressed optimism that the party is ready to mend fences and move forward.
“Our true identity is not that of opposition, but of a strong and ruling party. The process of returning to the seat of power is imminent and must happen at the next polls,” Tella said. He praised the efforts of prominent individuals who contributed to the party’s success, calling it a “God’s project.”
Tella’s vision for the party involves consolidating internal cohesion and unity through policy and strategy. He also aims to expand membership strength by spreading the party’s message of relief and betterment for the people of Ogun state. With the 2027 elections already on the horizon, the chairman is confident that his team can make a difference.
“We need ourselves, and working together again should not be difficult or impossible. The 2027 project is our top priority, and it requires all hands on deck,” he emphasized.
The new leadership’s commitment to party unity and growth signals a promising new chapter for Ogun State’s PDP. As the party prepares for the next election cycle, its members can take heart in the vision of a rejuvenated and revitalized organization, dedicated to bringing much-needed change to the state.
