I won’t defect from PDP – Olujimi

Senate minority leader Biodun Olujimi has vowed her commitment to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) saying the party possesses a certain liveliness that is missing in other political parties in the country.

Accordingly, she said unlike other politicians that have the habit of defecting to the ruling party, she would not decamp but would remain in the party because of her personal principles and values as a politician.

The senator said it would be against her values and principles to defect saying that many of those that left the PDP for some others may not be satisfied where they are.

“I am someone, who is grounded. I can never defect and the reason is simple. One must be known for honour, integrity, and steadfastness.

“This is the party, where I have achieved a lot. Why do I need to change it for another? What am I looking for than to serve my people and if they don’t want to be served, what do I do?

“There is no party like PDP. The truth is that it is the liveliest party, we are always there for one another and we support each other.

“It is really difficult to leave PDP for another party; it is the party that is ready to listen to the views of every member. We are trying to get our members back,” Olujimi said.

Already, the senator said the processes of rebuilding the PDP in Ekiti state have begun stressing before the next election the party would have returned to its original status enough to take over power in the state in 2022.

“Whether you like it or not, when a new government comes, as the head, they sweep everything away, but we are going to sweep the polls next time around,” she said.
