Members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Osun State have arrived at the venue of the party’s governorship primary election in Osogbo.
The party delegates were said to have arrived at Adolak Hall in Osogbo for the primary amidst tight security to forestall any violence.
DAILY POST recalls that the State PDP Chairman, Mr. Sunday Bisi, had on Monday announced that the primary election would no longer be held due to the crisis that rocked the national leadership of the party.
The National Organising Secretary of the party, Theophilus Shan, however, countered Bisi, insisting that the primary would hold as scheduled.
The hall is reportedly filled to the brim with delegates, with the party electoral committee, led by Humphery Abba, also at the venue.
Other members of the committee include Barr. Marc Jacob, Chief Sanya Atofarati, Mrs. Scholastical Kenebi, Chief Anene Azubuike, Mrs. Splendour Josephine, and Dr. Sunday Solarin, who serves as the secretary.
Meanwhile, officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) were also at the venue to monitor the exercise.
