athered, has made some members of Board of Trustees of the PDP to travel to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates on Saturday to engage in what one of our correspondents gathered was tagged ‘‘strategic consultation’’ with Atiku.
While the PDP and Atiku rejected the tribunal’s judgment and had signified their intention to approach the Supreme Court, Wike had congratulated Buhari. “I don’t know why he left. It was when the report of the committee was submitted that I noticed that he did not sign and his column for signature was not signed.
The outcome of the primaries had been rejected by some aspirants, who accused the party of being biased. He polled a total of 561 votes to win the governorship ticket while Alaibe came second with 365 votes. Both Diri and Alaibe are from the same Kolokuma/Opokuma Local Government Area. It was learnt that Alaibe was under pressure to dump the PDP and pick the ticket of another political party.
In the suit with reference number FHC/YNG/CS/99/2019, the aggrieved aspirant listed as defendants the PDP; Senator Douye Diri, governorship candidate; the INEC and one Embeleakpo Alale for himself and representing the elected council chairmen, vice chairmen and councillors of the PDP who were allowed to be delegates at the elective State Congress of the PDP in Bayelsa State held on September 3, 2019.
He has, therefore, called on the Independent National Electoral Commission and security agencies to remain neutral during the election. He expressed his willingness to continue to reach out to the 20 aspirants that contested against him during the primary with a view to winning them to his side. Sources close to the Senator representing Kogi West in the Senate, had asked for a fresh primary, but his request was turned down.
The mass defection story is to create a box of reaction from the writers imagination and is not anywhere near the truth. The public and the entire PDP members should save their breath talking.
There is no mass defection in PDP as a result of the tribunal verdict. Those who claim to be leaving are stomach politicians and not grassroot PDP members. By there fruit we shall know them.
