Barely 24 hours after a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja barred the Kawu Baraje-led
faction of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from parading themselves
as ‘New PDP’, the revolting governors, led by Niger State governor, Muazu
Babangida Aliyu, have resolved to fight on.
This comes as the Presidency and the opposition All Progressives
Congress (APC), Saturday, disagreed sharply on allegations of impunity in
handling the political situation in Rivers State.
The G7 closed-door meeting, which lasted several hours, at the
private residence of former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, took place few days
after Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State hosted APC leaders, led by the
party’s National Vice chairman, Northeast Zone, Alhaji Umar Duhu, at the
Government House. Nyako is said to have also anchored the governors’ meeting
that was reportedly attended by representatives of five ‘rebel’ governors of
Jigawa, Kwara, Kano, Rivers and Sokoto.
Credible sources said that the meeting was to fashion out new
strategies that could ground the 2015 ambition of President Jonathan, who was
given a clean bill by his party to run for the general elections.
The governors were said to have
resolved not to stop the battle unless the President withdraws his ambition to
contest the 2015 election, and
the national chairman of the PDP, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, resigns from office.
It was further gathered that the revolting group also agreed to remain
in the PDP, but work for a northern presidential candidate in the newly
registered All Progressive Congress (APC).
Further investigation revealed that the rebel group at their
Yola meeting asked Atiku to drop his ambition of using the newly registered
Peoples Democratic Movement (PDM) platform to contest
the presidential poll in 2015 and, instead, lead the battle to save the
interest of the North in 2015
The meeting also agreed that it would influence the APC leadership
to produce a northern Christian Presidential candidate in other to dilute the
religious politics some PDP members are championing to defend the 2015
presidential ambition of Jonathan.
