Ojougboh said “In choosing a candidate to succeed him, Mimiko did not allow the PDP members to buy forms. He mainly anointed Eyitayo Jegede (SAN) who was returned unopposed.

“Party members cried to high heavens that Jegede is from the central zone where Mimiko hails from. Their cries fell on deaf ears.”

Senator Buruji Kashamu also blamed Governor Mimikofor the woes of the party in the November 26, 2016 election.
