The former governor said Makinde had been treating him as an individual political leader, stressing that he respects the governor’s decisions and those of the ZLP.

either the ruling Peoples’ Democratic Party or the opposition All Progressives Congress in Oyo State, are currently at the root of a serious crisis rocking the ex-governor’s camp.revealed that current developments in Ladoja’s political family and the Zenith Labour Party , are strong indications that all is not well within.

In December 2018, Ladoja resigned his membership of the African Democratic Congress , over unresolved matters involving the choice of the party’s deputy governorship candidate. He affirmed that ADC cannot win the 2019 governorship election in the state due to the manner decisions were taken by leaders he described as “invisible.” He said he pitched his tent with the ZLP, where he would be fairly treated, as well as all the zones in the state.

Makinde went ahead to win the election and the coalition got ready to form the promised all-inclusive government with the victorious PDP in charge. But it appears the alliance was destined to fall apart early as the partners soon started to complain of ill treatments in the hands of Makinde. But Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Taiwo Adisa, said the governor has been magnanimous in the sharing formula with all parties that formed a coalition group in the state to ensure victory for the governor in the last gubernatorial election. Adisa said the allegations leveled against Makinde were not true because the governor and other members of the coalition had met on different occasions on procedures to adopt in the sharing formula agreed on even before the election.

And while the disagreement raged, many people who had expected Senator Ladoja to wade in and nip it in the bud were disappointed as he claimed he is unable to end the festering rift within the victorious coalition.
