Former governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), in Ogun State, Segun Sowunmi, has called for a complete overhaul of the party in order to stabilise it for future elections in the country.
The PDP chieftain disclosed this while speaking on the state of the PDP during a media briefing organised by the Ogun State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, (NUJ).
Sowunmi decried the party’s recent electoral losses in three consecutive Governorship elections in Ogun State.
The PDP stalwart, who advised on the urgent need for the party to restructure its internal working mechanism for optimal capacity and efficiency, also called for a revisit of its core values and ideology in order to restore its lost glory.
He also noted that the PDP is already working as a formidable opposition to the ruling All Progressives Congress, (APC) in providing credible alternative policy options to the present administration.
Sowunmi further expressed his intention to run for the National Chairmanship position of the party
It would be recalled that with the suspension of the party’s former National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, the North-Central caucus has agitating for the constitutional right of the zone to complete its four-year tenure, which ends in October 2025.
