Special Adviser on Media and Publications, Kola Ologbondiyan, said there was no plan to impose anybody.

A group of members of the PDP in oyo state had alleged that committee under the watch of Mark intends to impose a particular candidate on the party. However, Mark has denied this in a statement issued by his office on Tuesday.

“You are to choose your flagbearer and ensure that PDP wins elections in Oyo State. That is the agenda handed over to us, “

“I didn’t call gubernatorial candidates to my house. The meeting here (Banquet Hall) was open and all inclusive,” the senate president said in the statement.
