Niger State Governor, Babangida Aliyu, has denied
reports that he is no longer a member of the seven
aggrieved governors within the Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP.
Otherwise called G7 governors, the group also include;
Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto), Sule Lamido (Jigawa), Rotimi
Amaechi (Rivers), Abdulfatai Ahmed (Kwara), Murtala
Nyako (Adamawa), and Rabiu Kwankwanso (Kano).
They had joined other PDP chieftains to form a splinter
group now known as New PDP, after walking out of the
Special National Congress held at the Eagles Square,
Abuja
The faction led by Abubakar Kawu Baraje has former
vice president Atiku Abubakar and former governors of
Kwara and Osun, Senator Bukola Saraki and
Olagunsoye Oyinlola, Sam Jaja, among others as
members.
Reacting to speculations
that he recently dumped
the faction, Aliyu
maintained that those
jittery by the moves of
the G7 were trying to
mislead the public.
Speaking when members
of the civil service union
paid him a courtesy call
at the government house
in Minna, the governor
said he remained
committed to the cause
of the all aggrieved
members of the PDP
nationwide.
“I am still a member of
the G7. There is no truth
in reports that I have
dumped my colleagues,”
he said.
“We are still discussing
with the President and
can only take a decision
on our political future
after weighing the
outcome of the talks.”
Some media houses
yesterday reported that
Aliyu was leaving the
group because he was
no longer comfortable
with recent happenings within the group’s fold.
The reports claimed that his decision was to save his
political career by returning to the Bamaga Tukur-led
PDP in order to ease his bid to anoint a successor in
2015.
