The Ondo State governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko, on Tuesday has said nobody can chase him out ofPeoples Democratic Party (PDP) following his recent defection from Labour Party. According to him, he had not come to the PDP to cause or create any crisis as he had come to add value to the party. Mimiko said this in Akure, the Ondo State capital, while addressing the youth leaders of the party across the country led by the national youth leader, Alhaji Abdulahi Maibasira.
Mimiko said: “No party will survive without discipline. A party that takes decision and cannot enforce it is not a party. I have not come to PDP to be part of crisis. I have come to add value. I am not coming into PDP on the eve of a second term election. I have no second term ambition, there is no Senate seat available for me, I have only come to add value. I am back in this party, I have made the move and nobody is going to force me out of PDP again.”
“If anybody thinks he will create crisis and I will get angry and leave, they are just wasting time. Let us come together and build this party, discipline must be maintained. Since we came on board in 2009, we have had eight elections. Labour Party did not lose any of them, that is the value we are bringing and that is why am saying that the minimum is what we are asking.
“I am not coming alone. Out of nine House of Assembly seats, we won eight. By my coming now, all of them will become PDP apart from the one that went to APC. So, I am coming with value, am coming with all commissioners, everybody in government, give space to us so that we can do it together.”
