The Osun State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) , Hon Sunday Bisi has called on aggrieved PDP members to bring their complaints over the local government primary election process for resolutions.

Responding to reports from some local governments over the primary process, the party chief called on those with grievances to be assured that all genuine complaints will be looked into, urging members to cultivate the habit of exploring internal mechanisms for the ventilation of their grievances.

The party chief who linked the hot contest for the party tickets to its huge popularity among the people assured those with questions to put their complaints in writing and submit to the state leadership.

According to Bisi, the party leadership will not support injustice in whatever form, hence the initial release of timetable for the primary process which include appeal even after a winner has emerged at the primary.

“The PDP is a very popular platform in Osun State, hence many want to fly the flag of the party at the local elections. We are the winning party because our Governor is delivering well to the people. We are not surprised our primary process has drawn so much attention and controversy.

“We are aware of complaints in some local governments. We will surely resolve them amicably. So the door of the state leadership is open. We will get a stronger PDP at the end of it all.

“Now that we have complained one way or the other, it is time to meet the state leadership for resolution. The PDP remains a strong electoral platform. We are a family and we must adopt a conflict resolution mechanism”, Bisi affirmed.
