PDP Leaders Demand Accountability from Oluyede's Campaign Team

Leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ado-Ekiti Local Government Area, Ekiti State, have engaged in a dispute with the campaign team of their governorship candidate, Dr Wole Oluyede, regarding the management of campaign funds for the June 20 election. The PDP leaders challenged Oluyede to publicly disclose his total campaign expenditures while defending his running mate, Deji Ogunsakin, against allegations of financial misconduct.

In a statement from the PDP Chairman Femi Odeyemi and Secretary Makanjuola Temitope, they labeled the claims of fund diversion against Ogunsakin as vague and malicious. They provided details of financial contributions for a rally, stating Oluyede contributed N6 million, Ogunsakin N3 million, and others made smaller donations.

The leaders urged Oluyede to clarify any discrepancies in the reported figures. Sunshine Anifowose, representing concerned party members, insisted on accountability and requested evidence of Ogunsakin's personal expenditures during the campaign.
