Mark: no imposition in Oyo: Senate President David Mark has dismissed reports that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Integration Committee for the Southwest is plotting to impose a governorship candidate in Oyo State. A group, under the auspices of Rescue Team 2015, alleged that the Mark-led committee planned to impose a candidate on the state. Mark’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement in Abuja, quoted Mark to have said in his opening remarks at the Presidential Villa, where he met with Oyo PDP stakeholders that “we are not here to impose anybody or to choose a candidate for you.” “You are to choose your candidate and ensure that PDP wins in Oyo State. That is the agenda handed over to us. “The committee did not select the governorship aspirants who were invited for the meeting. Rather, every stakeholder was invited. “I didn’t call governorship aspirants to my house. The meeting here (Banquet Hall) was open and all inclusive,” the Senate President said. He urged stakeholders to work together and return the party to power in the interest of all. Original link Read More goo.gl/ubp1q6 (y) ✍comment ☏share
