Former Deputy Governor of Oyo state, Ambassador Taofeek Arapaja, has said his ambition is borne out of the need for repositioning of the PDP.
Arapaja is an aspirant to the post of Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He said he was spurred by the imperative of unifying and elevating the party to greater heights.
These were contained in a statement by his media aide, Ibrahim Bamitale, on Wednesday in Ibadan.
He noted that his aspiration is driven by the need to return normalcy to the party and engender all-inclusive, purposeful, visionary politics with a human face.
He said, “In order to bring normalcy back to our fold and after due consultation with party faithful, members, leaders and stakeholders, today, Ambassador Taofeek Arapaja participated in the screening of all Aspirants for the forthcoming National Convention at Legacy house Abuja.
“While Ambassador Arapaja would be aspiring for the post of the Deputy National Chairman of our great party, this ambition is borne out of the great idea of repositioning the Party to greater heights it rightfully belongs as we have started in the South-West PDP.
“Our dearest Governor and Leader of PDP in the South-West, Governor Seyi Makinde, has really raised the bar of politicking in our nation and we can’t do otherwise than to follow in his footsteps of an all-inclusive, purposeful and visionary brand of politics with a human face. His support has been very tremendous and we hope to continue making him proud.
“It’s our greatest hope that we shall once again come out victorious.”
