Ekiti 2022: Again, Segun Oni dumps PDP

Former Governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Segun Oni has, again announced his exit from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Oni, who is aspiring to govern the state for a second time, is apparently displeased with the outcome of the recent PDP governorship primary which left him in second place behind the flag bearer of the party, Mr. Bisi Kolawole.

Jackson Adebayo, spokesperson to former Governor Oni confirmed that the PDP aspirant has dumped the party with his supporters and will be announcing his destination in the days ahead.

There had been grumblings within Oni’s camp over the January 26 governorship primary alleged to be tailored to favour the camp of former governor Ayo Fayose.
