A governorship aspirant of the People's Democratic Party, PDP,  Mr Jimi Lawal has been accused of being a mole sponsored by the All Progressives Congress, APC to disrupt the party in Ogun State. 

A Special Assistant to former President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, who disclosed this in a viral video warned the State Chapter and the National body of the PDP, to be cautious of the antics of the APC aimed at causing crisis in the party. 

In his words, he said, "Look at the way we are right now and you will see that the APC are desperate. They are going to try to plant a mole in our party. And in ogun State I have identified the mole. The mole in the party that they tried to put is Jimi Lawal".

Omokri explained that "Jimi Lawal was for about 8years a special adviser on investment to Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, one of the strongmen of APC, one of their Chief propagandist, the governor of kaduna state and he's been close to him for a very long time."

"People speculate about their relationship, I don't want to go into such sordid details, but they are very very close. In 2019, Jimi Lawal ran for the APC gubernatorial ticket in Ogun State and he came last, he was woefully defeated. Now they are trying to bring him under the PDP", he fumed. 

"Now you know that Mallam Nasir El-Rufai has variously said and just recently said that the PDP are criminals that Nigerians should not vote for the PDP to return to power. Why is his golden hen point ,why is his right hand man now coming to contest for ogun state gubernatorial primaries under the PDP?" Omokri asked. 

"It can only be for one reason, this man is a mole! So I ask all of you to reject him. You know the last time, he came last in the APC gubernatorial primaries, this time around I will be disappointed if he has one vote. If he gives money take his money. I will be disappointed if he has one vote. There are better candidates than Jimi Lawal, much better candidates. You can vote for any one of them you know, vote your conscience but this Jimi Lawal disgrace him , reject him, send the APC and Nasir El-Rufai the message, let them know that we in the PDP are not children that they can just bring a mole and deceive us."

"Disgrace Jimi Lawal. Now I encourage you to share this message to all registered members of the party in Ogun State. This man should be disgraced, you know he's picked the form yes , that is his constitutional right but let us disgrace him."

It would be recalled that Jimi Lawal recently picked an expression of interest form to contest for governor of Ogun State, at the national headquarters of the PDP in Abuja, immediately after a former member of the house of Representatives, Chief Ladi Adebutu showed interest officially to contest same position by picking the expression of interest and nomination forms.
