As the crisis over who controls the soul of the People’s Democratic Party rages on, a northern group has rejected the overtures of the 2023 presidential candidate of the party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as the leader of the party and rooted for the leadership of the Minister of the federal capital territory, FCT, Chief Nyesom Wike.
Just days to the crucial meeting of the national executive council, of the party, Arewa PDP Transparency Group said the recent media war over who becomes the national leader of the major opposition party to champion the affairs of the PDP in Thursday’s NEC, meeting was unnecessary since Wike has the capacity to turn the fortunes of the party around for good.
A statement by Hon Haruna Bature, national chairman of Arewa PDP Transparency Group on Monday said “leadership means care, concern and responsibility. It is not self serving, not periodic and not spontaneous.
Bature in the statement made available in Port Harcourt noted that having assessed the performances of these leaders, “Arewa PDP Transparency Group endorsed Bar Nyesom Wike who is not a Self Serving leader, lacking of concern, sustenance and responsibility in the management of the affairs of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The PDP as the biggest opposition party in Africa has suffered a lot of Leadership Crises which resulted in its loss of Power at the National Level from 2015 till date.
