Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, says those holding the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) down are free to leave the party.
He stated this on Wednesday in a reaction to the resignation of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar from the PDP.
Makinde, a serving governor under the PDP, spoke during the 10th Coronation Anniversary Colloquium of the Deji of Akure, Oba Aladetoyinbo Ogunlade Aladelusi, held in Akure, Ondo State.
The governor said the party remained an institution that will not be shaken by individual departures.
“Well, politics is a game of interest. I don’t think that will make any dent on PDP as a party. PDP is an institution. You have freedom of entrance and exit, but I think anyone who will hold PDP down, it’s better for such individuals to go,” he said.
