There is confusion in the Presidency and the Peoples Democratic Party over when the party will inaugurate its Presidential Campaign Committee. The committee, which is headed by a former National Chairman of the party, Ahmadu Ali, was made known during the inauguration of the party’s National Campaign Council, headed by its National Chairman, Adamu Mu’azu, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on December 11. It was meant to be inaugurated the following day at Legacy Building, Maitama, Abuja.

Investigations by our correspondent showed that neither the party nor the Presidency can speak authoritatively on when the committee will be inaugurated. Since no one knows this, it is also observed that there is no plan yet as to when the committee will release President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign itinerary.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, told our correspondent that he was not in the position to state when the President’s campaign would start, adding that a committee was being put in place for that purpose. “I’m not in charge of that; I don’t know where and how the campaign would run,” he told our correspondent on the telephone on Tuesday.

Also, the National Secretary of the party, Prof. Wale Oladipo, when contacted, was unable to give specific date on when the committee would begin work. Initially he said it would be inaugurated this week, but when reminded that both Thursday and Friday had been declared public holidays, he said he was not sure. He said, “The committee will be inaugurated this week, or before it runs out. Anyway, we are working on it.”

The committee, which is being considered as being juicy, already has N21.27bn to work with.

They are finding it difficult to just constitute a campaign committee yet they were complaining it took Buhari 3days after he won the party's ticket to choose a running mate!!

How dumb could PDP really get?

Wondering what would GEJ's campaign message be this time around...

Power will be stable from June 2015.. e ma gooo ..

Universities in all LGAs in Nigeria.

And importantly would fight corruption and insecurity.

Kudos to opposition for giving us the reasons to flush the clueless 1 out of Aso rock.

This type of people's brain are already wired, such that they can never see anything bad about the drunken master, JONAH. Despite his atrocities and monumental corruption cases during his tenure without anybody being convicted, all he can say is no shake. Even stealing is not corruption

You have no conscience you this fool
