Doyin Okupe, former special assistant to former Nigerian president, Olusegun Obasanjo on (Media & Publicity) has blasted Senator Buruji Kashamu labeling him a “political impostor”.
According to Okupe, he blasted Kashamu for misrepresenting the southwest chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over what geopolitical zone presents the next national chairman of the party.
“There is an embarrassing falsehood being propagated by political charlatans from the southwest and some influential collaborators in the top echelon of the PDP,” he wrote on his Facebook page.
Adding that, “The seed of this misrepresentation was sowed by a group of political clowns and court jesters under the leadership of Senator Buruji Kashamu, a political impostor who claims he is the leader of the party and the Yorubas in the southwest.”
Issuing a warning to the PDP, Okupe said: “Failure for a Yoruba man to emerge as the national chairman can only mean two things.
“One, that there is a pervasive and concealed hatred for the southwest in the PDP.
“Two, that the PDP has very little or no regard for Yoruba interest as was evinced by the obvious cheating of the Southwest from the position of the Speakerin 2011, which was never rectified nor compensated for the whole of four years.”
