Mr Babayemi contested in the PDP primary in Osun that produced Mr Adeleke as its candidate for the July 16 election.
The party, in the statement, specifically frowned at “apparent attempt by the former aspirant to become a tool of the APC to truncate the overwhelming victory of PDP at the governorship poll’’. “Any decision to pursue the issue further will smack of open anti-party activity and a direct disrespect for the people of Osun state who voted massively for Senator Ademola Adeleke,’’ it said.
NAN reports that the PDP in Osun had on March 8 held two parallel governorship primary elections in the state. In a list of candidates later released by the Independent National Electoral Commission , Mr Adeleke emerged as the flag bearer of the PDP. The campaign organisation in a statement signed by its Director, Oladiran Ojedele, said that Mr Babayemi was out for justice with a view to claiming his mandate.
