The Presidential
adviser on political matters to President Goodluck Jonathan, Alhaji Ahmed Gulak
has said that the demands being made by the governors were to the effect that
they want to be leaders of the PDP at all cost. Gulak described the demands as
senseless and selfish.
Speaking
on the demands of the aggrieved governors that Tukur should resign for peace to
reign in the party, Gulak said: “It is the media that is escalating this issue
in the party. Of course, they have the right to make demands but the demands
they are making now are senseless and selfish. They are making these demands
just for their own selfish interest and not in the interest of Nigerians or the
party.”
Speaking
in New York in an interview, Gulak said:
“There is no problem in the PDP as being reported. However, there may be
aggrieved members as the G-7 governors call themselves, and they believe that
they have to be leaders at all cost; they believe that they have to pocket the
party; they believe that the wrong ways with which things were being done in
the party must continue. They have their own opinion, they have their own
stand; they may call themselves aggrieved members but I assure you that there
is no faction in the PDP.”
