The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has rejected Senator Buruji Kashamu as its governorship candidate in Ogun State.<\/p>\n

This was contained in a statement by the party\u2019s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Monday following a rally held by the Senator in Ijebu Igbo town in the state.<\/p>\n

PDP accused Kashamu of being desperate to destabilise it, describing the rally as \u201cthe height of ridicule\u201d.<\/p>\n

The party noted that its National Chairman, Uche Secondus, has since handed over the real flag to its \u201cauthentic\u201d candidate, Ladi Adebutu.<\/p>\n

\u201cNigerians are aware that Senator Buruji never purchased PDP nomination form; never participated in our governorship primary or in any process related to nomination of governorship candidate of our party or any position whatsoever,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

The party also alleged that the senator was being sponsored as an agent to cause confusion among its members in the state.<\/p>\n
