Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has slammed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying it’s “decayed from the head” and on the brink of collapse. He predicts that Taraba and Plateau state governors will soon leave the party, following the footsteps of other governors who have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Fayose made this statement during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today, citing internal crises and leadership failures as the reasons behind the party’s downfall. He even compared the situation to a fish rotting from the head, implying that the damage is irreversible ¹ ² ³.
The PDP is already facing a court battle, with a Federal High Court restraining the party from holding its national convention, scheduled for November 15-16. Fayose’s comments have added fuel to the fire, with many speculating about the party’s future.
It’s not just Taraba and Plateau governors who are expected to leave; Fayose predicts that three more governors will defect, leaving the PDP with only five governors. The party is already governing just eight states, its weakest position in the Fourth Republic.
