The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) youth wing in Ibadan North East Local Government Area of Oyo State on Saturday warned that the party may collapse before 2015 general elections.

The youth numbering over 1,000 had while protesting against the attack on the Minister of State for Federal Capital Territory by a chieftain of the party in the State, Bisi Adeyemi Yoyo (Oolopoeeyan), in Ibadan, said the National Working Committee of the party led by Bamanga Tukur knew that without dissolution of the existing executive and genuine reconciliation, "PDP in Oyo will perish in mocky water in 2015 general elections. The youth wondered how the chieftain of the party who did not know how many polling boots in his ward, claimed to be a chieftain.

According to them, Jumoke Akinjide is an achiever who has performed very well and even beat the imagination of the opponent. Her achievements they claimed include treating political leaders well and reconciling the aggrieved ones.

"She is a bridge builder that connects Abuja and Oyo State with good dividends of democracy. "She has touched the lives of many through poverty alleviation programme while show casing President Goodluck Jonathan's job creation for the Nigerian youths through sponsorship of Sure-P programme," they said.

Olopoenia had alleged that the Minister of State of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, Oloye Jumoke Akinjide was not loyal to the ongoing peace process been embarked upon in the state. Olopoenia who disclosed this  while speaking with journalists  on the reconciliation going on in the party,  said it was  unfortunate that the minister who only came into reckoning in the state political calculation because of her appointment  could be arrogated relevance to herself.

According to him,  every indication has now clearly pointed to the fact she is not loyal to the resolution of crisis  in the state.
