A member of the House of Representatives representing Iseyin/Itesiwaju/Kajola/Iwajowa Federal Constituency, Honourable Shina Abiola Peller, has announced he will name his new political party on Tuesday, June 21.
Peller disclosed this on Friday via his official Twitter handle.
The tweet read: “I’ve tried my best for APC, the party style of democracy in Oyo State kills my conscience and I’ve to put my people’s interest first.
“I’ve realized that the youths and the people will continue to be at the mercy of few at the top. I’ll announce my new political party on 21|06| 22.”
Peller who was elected to the House in 2019 had declined to seek a second term in order to honour an agreement to rotate the seat in his constituency.
DAILY GIST reported that Peller, who is an indigene of Iseyin in Oke Ogun geo-political zone in Oyo State, dumped the All Progressives Congress, APC, via a letter addressed to the chairman of his ward.
His exit from the ruling party is coming after he lost Oyo North senatorial ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to Fatai Buhari.
Buhari scored 570 votes against Peller’s five votes, ending the lawmaker’s four-year stint in the National Assembly.
Peller has, however, renounced his membership of APC, stating that he is dissatisfied with the party’s style in Oyo State.
