Fresh facts have emerged on why the New Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has chosen to stay back within the main PDP, despite the refusal of President Goodluck Jonathan to yield to any of their seven demands.

Credible insiders confirmed to Sunday Tribune that the G7 governors stayed back in the PDP when negotiations on their joining the opposition coalition became deadlocked, due to the conditions they presented.

It was gathered that few weeks ago, one of the G7 governors from the North-Western zone approached the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on behalf of his colleagues and submitted request of the Kawu Baraje-led faction to join the opposition so as to defeat the main PDP in 2015.

The leadership of APC was said to have welcomed the idea and went ahead to propose that the G7 meet the eleven governors of the APC. The meeting was held in Abuja and Nasarawa State, according to our source, but it was the last between the two groups.

The source confided in our reporter that: “The G7 governors’ main condition was that the APC structures in Rivers, Kwara, Niger, Sokoto, Kano, Adamawa and Jiagawa be handed over to them, if they were to join the opposition. This was what they called the first condition upon which they would publicly declare for the APC.

“The APC team at the meeting rejected the condition as the APC itself is made up of three parties just trying to fuse together. They were told they can only join as ordinary members and without preconditions.”

It was learnt that many APC leaders, especially those from the North-West, kicked against the idea on the grounds that most members of the G7 from the zone are political rivals to leaders of the APC in their respective states.

According to our source, the APC in Sokoto, led by former Governor Attahiru Bafarawa, rejected any possibility of the party structure being handed over to Governor Aliyu Wamakko, his old rival in Sokoto politics.

The same situation was said to have played out in Kano State where former Governor Ibrahim Shekarau was said to have rejected such condition on the ground that the opposition in the state is well grounded even without Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso.

Sunday Tribune was told that the national leadership of the APC also believed the G7, if admitted, might create another round of political rancor within the new party. According to an APC chief from Kano State, “we actually rejected the New PDP when they wanted to join us.

“They want to take over what they don’t know how we built. We in Kano said we don’t want Kwankwaso. Bafarawa people also said they don’t want Wamakko. Since the last talk, the G7 has not approached us again.”

HABA!! No be film be this now

Bunch of hypocrites!! They want to control their states party structures but do not want GEJ to do so at the federal level!!Ndi iru abuo

Goodbye nPDP,Rotimi shame shame shame shaaaammmmeeee !

Bollocks!
G7 are now in a political wilderness. Amaechi's money is no longer enough for them, they want power.
They are tired of fighting, but don't know how to go about an apology to the president and the PDP. I bet they didn't expect the President to put up the kinda fight he has done so far.
The G7 governors are a bunch of megalomaniacs and cannot surrender to the almighty Tinubu or Buhari. They would rather stay in the PDP where it is the norm to insult the President or national chairman and nobody will punish them for it. Let them go to the APC and call for Bisi Akande's resignation and see what will happen to them. These men are the problem of the PDP and by extention, Nigeria!

There never was division in Pdp. The G7 apparent revolt was a ploy by Pdp to deceive the opposition, particularly the Apc. The plan was that Apc would be deceived into accepting the G7 and handing control of some states to them. The G7 will pretend to be with Pdp and take absolute control. Then the bombshell - the G7-turned Apc will show their true colours by "reconciling" with Pdp.
The plan failed because political tacticians in Apc saw through the ploy and chase the G7 back to where the came from.

The desperate fools have succeeded in boxing themselves into a corner.

Another Gej plan failed

rooftech: dont believe tribune news,the are spin writters.you know the owner died in the 80's they need to survive.

so why are they not leaving the PDP for the opposition or better yet setting up shop and forming a new political party?

Reason for once you doubting thomases.

utumunta: Bollocks!
G7 are now in a political wilderness. Amaechi's money is no longer enough for them, they want power. !

RIVERS STATE MONEY OH!!!
I hope Hot coal will not have a more honorable dropping!
Ask Peter.

Did anyone read the reasons the proposal by nPDP didn't fly? Unwillingness by sokoto and Kano Governors and opposition to hand over APC structure to nPDP!
This structure thing has NO bearing in Rivers state at all cos no matter the handover of structure Rivers is always PDP!
... But these people are bold oh!! They think is everyone (GEJ) that will seat and listen to their conditions!!!

dis fools wil surely curse obj for misleading dm

Good news for the opposition. The G7 will remain in PDP to fight from withing. With the level of support they have I think they can comfortably distabilize the party before 2015, leaving the opposition with a better chance of victory.. I pray the opposition realizes this though.

No where in the world will some 5governors out of 35 giv the C'n'C conditions! GEJ u dey fall hand oh! crush these unscrupolous elements and deal wit them decisively mehn!

Story. Why wud dey destabilise d pdp for apc to win if dey can not be part of d apc to reap d spoils? D wud rather keep their differences aside, work hard for d pdp to win and continue to pursue their selfish agenda.
