More Governors May Soon Dump The PDP by Mc4larin: 9:40pm On Nov 14, 2014
The Benue state Governor Gabriel Suswam, Liyel
Imoke from Cross River and Enugu state Governor, Sullivan Chime may soon leave the ruling Peoples Democratic Party

The three key governors supportive of the President Goodluck government may dump the party.

Their complaint followed unsettled political crisis in their states by the PDP’s national secretariat.

Gabriel Suswam, the Governor of Benue State, may leave the ruling PDP for one of the opposition parties in Nigeria, the Labor Party, to realize his senatorial ambition.

His Cross River counterpart, Liyel Imoke, is supposedly and is intimidating to join the All Progressives Congress, APC following the PDP’s choice of Senator Victor Edoma Egba.

Similarly, Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime, who is also bitter over the party’s decision to allow the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu to run on the ticket of the PDP instead of him (Chime), is considering defecting
the party to run on the platform of All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA for the senatorial seat.

It was reported that shortly after a meeting,
where President Goodluck Jonathan and the management of the PDP accepted automatic tickets to 40 out of 72 PDP senators, who want to return to the red chamber, the governors were affected.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar defected his party the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for the All Progressives Congress, APC, months ago.

House of Representatives speaker Alhaji Aminu
Tambuwal, has recently defected from the ruling party to APC which caused a highly-publicized scandal in Nigeria’s politics.

Hmm the transfer season is about to open. Some players who could not afford to seat on the bench in their present club are seeking free transfer to a place where they will have better playing chance.
