Pro-PDP Group knocks Olopoeyan Over Recent Viral Video Interview, Describes His Guber Ambition as “a Mere Fantasy”

A political group within the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) called the Egalitarian Group has expressed strong opposition to a statement made by a Chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Alhaji Adebisi Olopoeyan and described as “Laughable” and “a mere fantasy”.

The statement which is in reaction to a viral video interview circulating on media by Alhaji Adebisi Olopoeyan that Oyo state Governor Engr. Seyi Makinde would support his gubernatorial ambition at the 2027 General elections.

According to the statement by the group through the state Coordinator Popoola Iyiola Pius, Governor Makinde has not made any such promise or commitment to Olopoeyani or the NNPP.

The group accused Olopoeyan of trying to deceive the public and gain political relevance by dropping the governor’s name.

They emphasized that Governor Makinde is a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and has not indicated any intention to support the NNPP or Olopoeyan’s ambition.

The PDP egalitarian group urged the public to disregard Olopoeyan’s statement describing it as “a desperate attempt to seek attention”.

They reaffirmed their support for Governor Makinde and the PDP, stating that they would continue to work towards the party’s success in the state.

The group also warned Olopoeyan and his party to desist from spreading false information and to focus on their own political strategies.

‘’ Our party will never go back to those days of political dealers which was championed by Olopoeniyan. When he left for NNPP, peace and tranquillity has been restored.

Governor Seyi Makinde that we know will never have a thought of supporting a very myopic and retrogressive person like Olopoeyan

They emphasized that the people of Oyo State are not gullible and would not be swayed by such “cheap political antics”
