Y'all know there are two PDP factions now so to
distinguish them we have to call one - President
Jonathan's PDP and the one that broke away last
weekend - former VP Atiku Abubakar's PDP. So the
chairman of President Jonathan's PDP Bamanga Tukur
today held a press conference in Abuja where he
threatened members of Atiku's PDP with suspension,
called them impostors and said the police should
regard them as such. Lol. 2015 will be interesting.
What he said at the press conference below.
Our reason for being here is to neither inform you
without any iota of doubt that the Peoples
Democratic Party has no faction and there is
neither room nor reason whatsoever for such a
claim under any guise.
The PDP has only one duly elected National
Executive Committee (NEC) under my
Chairmanship. I wish therefore to state with all
emphasis that any group of persons parading
themselves as leaders of NEC or any other organ
of our party are impostors and I urge all
Nigerians, especially the security agencies and
other institutions of democracy to regard them as
such.
Let me state categorically that the PDP as the
sole custodian of the sacred mandate of over 160
million Nigerians and who in the last fourteen
years has lifted high the banner of democracy will
not fold its arms while some undemocratic and
unpatriotic elements destroy our common destiny
by causing divisions and confusion among the
people.
Consequently, we shall ensure that any person
who is not duly elected into any leadership
position in our great party and has not been duly
assigned any role but goes ahead to arrogate
such to himself will be made to face the full wrath
of the law.
Similarly, all persons elected on the platform of
our great party at all levels who identify with
these enemies of the oneness and greatness of
our party shall have their seats declared vacant
as required by law.
We shall leave no stone unturned to ensure that
such persons and indeed any other individual who
attempts to subvert the leadership of the PDP
shall reap in full, the consequences of such
actions.
I wish to emphasize that the PDP has adequate
mechanism for internal conflict resolution. All
party members are therefore advised to ventilate
their grievances through this medium.
There is only one lawfully recognized PDP and I
am firmly in charge,” Bamanga Tukur declared.
Meanwhile 26 Senators and at least 57 members of the
House of Representatives have declared loyalty to “The
New PDP” chaired by Abubakar Baraje.
