The PDP has restated its call for the extension of the Ondo governorship election scheduled for Saturday, November 26, to enable it “screen and select agents for the exercise”.
The Court of Appeal, on Wednesday in Abuja, dropped the party’s candidate, Jimoh Ibrahim, and replaced him with Eyitayo Jegede, who was the flag bearer before being substituted.
The Chairman of the party’s national caretaker committee, Sen. Ahmed Makarfi, has described the judgement as a “massive step forward”, but argued that the party deserved “a little more time to select its agents in the interest of fair play”.
