Leadership Crisis Rocks OPC New Era – Sadam ‘Taku’ As 8-Year Tenure of Pioneer Executives Lapses

A leadership storm is brewing within the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) New Era as the eight-year tenure of the pioneer executives, led by Alhaji Rasaq Balogun Arogundade (a.k.a. Sadam), comes to an end this month.
While majority of the executive members are preparing for a new set of leaders to take the reins, it appears that the incumbent National President, Sadam, is reluctant to hand over the baton.
Those calling on Sadam to step down argued that he emerged as National President with a clear agreement between the National Coordinating Council (NCC) and the Elders Council that the executives would serve for two terms of four years each.
With their eight-year tenure lapsing, they insist that it is time for fresh faces to take over, as agreed upon.
There is clear handwriting on the wall that Sadam’s leadership of the group may soon come to an end, as an aspirant for the position has emerged.
Alhaji Lateef Adewale Oshodi, the Lagos State Chairman, has signified his intention to succeed Sadam as National President.
Sources close to the issue revealed that many OPC New Era leaders are backing Oshodi’s bid, citing his long-standing commitment to the organization since 1997.
