Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has called on all members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to remain steadfast and committed to the shared vision of progress, unity and development.

He urged other opposition politicians who are in the coalition, especially members of the PDP, to return to the Party, likening their alliance to people who abandoned a house due to internal challenges.

Speaking at the end of the Party’s South West Zonal Caucus meeting in Ibadan, Oyo State, the Governor emphasised unity, urging coalition members to address issues collaboratively rather than leaving due to temporary setbacks.

“You can’t abandon your house because of a leaking roof,” Governor Makinde declared. He added that the PDP is built on solid foundations, and like any structure, it may face wear and tear. It is the responsibility of all Party members to fix the leaks, strengthen the foundation, and keep the house standing for the people of this country.

Governor Makinde acknowledged the sacrifices of all Party members and leaders and reaffirmed his commitment to working together with other critical stakeholders in the Party towards the success of the PDP in future elections. “Let us fix the roof together and keep this house strong for the future,” Governor Makinde concluded.
