Group of 7 PDP Governors Move to Float ‘Third Force’

Governor Rotimi Amaechi

As Northern professionals oppose 6-year single tenure

Vincent Obia in Lagos and Chuks Okocha in Abuja               
Peoples Democratic Party governors who voted for the re-election of Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi in the last Nigeria Governors' Forum election may be considering floating a new party, to emerge as a Third Force to the ruling PDP and opposition coalition party, All Progressives Congress.

  The group, comprising seven governors, has already commenced talks with the three governors of the All Nigeria Peoples Party with a view to aligning to form the new party, THISDAY has learnt.

Amaechi and Sokoto State Governor Aliyu Wammako have been suspended by PDP for reasons not unconnected with the NGF election and their position on it.

Besides Amaechi and Wammako, others said to be involved in the proposed new party are Governors Sule Lamido of Jigawa State, Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State, Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State, Babangida Aliyu of Niger State and Usman Dakingari of Kebbi State.

The governors, who are perceived to be opposed to President Goodluck Jonat-han’s assumed second term ambition, want a party where they would form the nucleus of its organisational structure and be founders ahead of the 2015 general election.

As part of their game plan, the governors are also considering talks with the national leader of the Accord Party and former Oyo State Governor, Senator Rashidi Ladoja, and another former governor of the state, Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala, in a bid to make an in-road into the South-west.

Their plan is dead on arrival. With a third party, there wont be a strong opposition force against PDP. They better leave their personal interests <aside> and align with APC for a stronger rivalry with the PDP.
No, but they wont embarassed
And they shovld forget that "in-road" into S/west

If this move is realised, GEJ would have been handed a clean ticket to Aso rock come 2015.

I think Dele Momodu already said something like this. Without a strong opposition, it is an automatic ticket to GEJ's second tenure.
Just like everything Nigerian, Sentiments and emotions won't allow the opposition to com togther and force out PDP.

Bro you must be too dumb to see what is happening, this will give President GEJ automatic PDP ticket, this renegade will definitely field a northern candidate that will split Buhari's vote up north. You can't bank on Amaechi VP ticket to guarantee Rivers State vote for this group.

Learn to look at the big picture.

PDP conglomerate is on the verge of collapse.

Just like Abraham Lincoln benefited from the divide among the Democrats(Northern and Southern factions) to win the election as a Republican, I see a divided PDP losing power to the opposition.

The pertinent question remains, who will be the flag bearer of the opposition?
