New Party Will Emerge From PDP, Says Osi Olubadan of Ibadan


A PDP stalwart and Osi Olubadan of Ibadan, Senator Lekan Balogun, has predicted that a new party would emerge from the PDP ahead of the 2019 general elections. He disclosed this yesterday during the monthly Guest Forum held at Ijikodo, Ibadan.

He said, “I foresee a new party emerging out of the fall of PDP from power after the 2015 elections when the ruling All Progressives Congress took over.


“Some members of the party have gotten to a point of no return and I think they could break away,” he said. The PDP, which came to power in 1999, ruled the country for 16 years. Since it lost to the ruling party, All Progressive Congress (APC) all has not been well within the caucus of the party. The party failed in its re-election bid because its leadership refused to listen to the advice of elders.”
