“The only thing that kills any team, unit, or party is what is going on now: members working against the party,” he remarked.
The political expert also expressed dismay over what he termed a betrayal of collective interests.
Competing interests, aspirations
Olarewaju acknowledged that disagreements are inevitable in politics, stemming from competing ambitions and interests.
However, he emphasized that the current situation within the PDP extends beyond everyday political conflicts.
“I’ve never been bothered about all the ruckus in PDP because it’s politics, and you’ll always have conflicts due to competing ambitions, interests, and aspirations,” he said.
Call for unity amidst challenges
The aide urged party members to prioritize unity and the party’s collective goals over personal grievances.
“Politics is a team sport. When members undermine the party, it creates cracks that our opponents exploit. This internal sabotage is what is prolonging our crisis,” he stated.
Olarewaju expressed confidence in the PDP’s resilience, citing its long-standing history as a dominant political force in Nigeria.
He urged party leaders and stakeholders to resolve their differences and realign their focus on regaining public trust ahead of future elections.
