The PDP didn’t just call Obasanjo senile, did it?

by Kolapo Olapoju

Following the theatrical exit of former president, Olusegun Obasanjo from the Peoples Democratic Party, the ruling party has taken a swipe at him, saying anyone that has attained his age, may not necessarily know what he’s doing.

Obasanjo, while announcing his exit from the party, had asked the Chairman of the PDP in his Ward at Abeokuta, Mr. Usman Oladunjoye to tear his membership card, however, PDP said the card of the former President had actually expired.

The party stated that Obasanjo’s shredded card was signed by the party’s former Acting National Chairman, Alhaji Kawu Baraje.

While reacting to the Obasanjo’s exit, National Secretary of the PDP, Dr. Wale Oladipo, said: “Baba (Obasanjo) is over 80 years and my mother is around Obasanjo’s age and when you reach that age, you do things that only you can explain.”

“Secondly, you will see that Baba did not tear our card. He asked somebody ostensibly to do the tearing and I am assuring you that the card that was torn was not the current PDP card.”

“The current PDP card is signed by Mu’azu and Oladipo. So the card he tore was a Baraje card, which we were going to destroy anyway. So I think Baba started it.”

“Lastly Baba is a very intelligent man. When Baba was helping us, he knows that a lot of people could have complained that they could have voted for PDP but Baba is there. You know when a big tree exits in a big forest, smaller trees cannot grow. If that big tree leaves, 10 to 20 smaller trees will grow.”

“In politics one big tree has a vote, while twenty small trees have 20 votes. If you do the arithmetic, I am a scientist, I know that head or tail, it is a win win situation for PDP.”
