Adamu Muazu, the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) national chairman, is under increasing
pressure to resign following the party’s woeful
performance in the general elections.


Adamu Muazu

The agitation for his resignation has polarised
the party’s governors. While several PDP
Northern governors have thrown in their lot
with the embattled party boss, the Southsouth
and Southeast governors insist on Mu’azu’s
resignation.
In particular, Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti
state has recently called on Mu’azu to leave
his position adding that “it is morally wrong
for the National Chairman to remain in office
after leading the party into its first national
electoral loss.”
Babangida Aliyu, Niger state governor, claimed
that the PDP leaders should emulate the
British political leaders who quit after their
party’s failure in the Thursday polls.
Ikedi Ohakim, the immediate past governor of
Imo state, yesterday also joined in the Muazu-
must-go campaign.


Responding to numerous calls for his
resignation, the party chairman said that he
would not resign, noting that the PDP must
put an end to its “developing culture of using
and dumping” party’s members.
According to multiple party sources, the
Muazu-must-go campaign is threatening to
put PDP Northern governors and their Southern
counterparts on a collision course.
One source told The Nation that at recent
meeting PDP Northern governors resolved to
mobilise party chieftains across the North to
resist the move to sack Muazu.
“Governors at the meeting insisted that the
plot to remove Muazu does not enjoy the
support of President Goodluck Jonathan.
“According to them, those behind the divisive
move are merely popularizing their intention by
dropping the name of the president,” the
source said.
The convener of the meeting, a Northwest
governor, reportedly said he had spoken with
Goodluck Jonathan on the issue and the
president stressed that he was not a party to
the plan to change the leadership of the PDP
before or after his exit from office.

The source added that the governors agreed to
remain in the PDP and ensure that all organs
of the party are allowed to complete their
tenure.
Meanwhile, another source said that the
Southern governors tabled a modified plan to
replace the Muazu-led executives with a
caretaker committee.
This was reportedly rejected by the PDP
Northern governors, who similarly rejected a
plan to install President Goodluck Jonathan as
chairman of the Board of Trustees of the party.
“There is an imminent clash of interest
amongst the governors. There seems to be no
way to bring them to an agreement because
some governors, especially those from the
Southsouth, are still going about how to
reposition the party without Muazu and his
executives.
“Even as we speak, they had a meeting where
it was resolved that the Southsouth should
produce the next chairman while the
Southwest should retain the Secretary.

“The decision of three Northern governors who
were previously part of the ‘Muazu Must Go’
plot to pull out could not even convince these
governors to dump the plot.
“So unless something gives way soon, any
plan to change the leadership of the party and
even the BoT in the nearest future will pitch
our governors against one another along
regional lines. This is obviously not good for
the PDP,” the source said.
Meanwhile, Goodluck Jonathan yesterday
promised to work with the PDP Post- Election
Review Committee to return the party to its
lost glory . He said that everything would be
done to ensure that the PDP not only presents
a credible opposition for the country but also
works to return to power in 2019.

[size=15pt]Gov. Aliyu Joins Fayose, Wants Muazu out As PDP Chair[/size]
Gov. Babangida Aliyu of Niger on Saturday urged leaders of PDP to emulate
the British political leaders, who resigned after leading their party to
defeat in Thursday’s election.

Aliyu gave the advice in Dutse at the inauguration of a township road
named after the then “G7 Governors’’ by Gov. Sule Lamido of Jigawa.

He said that any leader, who led his political party to defeat, like it
happened to Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) supposed to resign.

‘’It is unfortunate that people had to be called to resign.
“The leaders are supposed to voluntarily resign their positions for the
loss at the just concluded general elections.

I just hate Pdp so much to the extent that am so happy that they are going through crisis.
Una never see anything,na morning the wahala still dey e neva even enter afternoon.
God is paying you guys back for the 16 years of pain you brought upon Nigerians.

Another great news for a great day.
Think I'd go get me a drink.

Mu'azu should leave pdp nah. Must he show northern desperation for leadership?

Black man and the love of power. What would it cost the fool if he resigns honourably. Anyway,na them sabi.

So on point, after the million dollars they embezzle, they still wanna remain there like forever.

What is he still doing there? He commandeered the PDP to a shipwreck yet he wants to be the captain of the refurbished ship. Isn't that absurd?

Pdp should bloame itself for its failure and not Mu'azu. They should blame gej, pej, fayose, ffk, okupe, etc. But since they don't want him, he should just go. Once APC gives us more than what PDP gave us(not hardship oo ), that will be the end of PDP

The PDP's in the house should come forth and speak up. E.g temitemi1

When he was condemning the hate documentaries against Buhari, you were calling him a mole. So the question is, how did he destroy pdp?

Please ask them to tell us which northern govs they are talking about. After 29th May, PDP has 3 northern gov. With 100% funding of the party depending on the states of Delta, Akwaibom, Rivers and Baylesa.

I maintain that the PDP need complete overhaul starting from its name... Muazu must not b allowed to lead us, the NWC has failed and should do the needful.

Mehn this season 2 go make sense dieee...seee groooovee una dey feeel"""chai
