see the time PDP is playing supremacy within themselves. time they ought to unanimously be on the track

only God know the criteria that elected this secondus as PDP chairman. at least majority knew the credibility that gave oshiomole APC chairmanship and he's doing just fine for their party


5 months to election an opposition party is still battling with internal crisis in various state. smh

OAM4J:
I hope Secondus is not an APC agent

I won't be surprised if PDP supporters worldwide begin to blame Buhari and Tinubu for the problems Secondus has brought to bear in the party. They could say he's their patsy, just as the did SAS.

yarimo:
Why are they even fighting in the first place? Is PDP still a political party in LAGOS state?

They are fighting over who will precide over the funeral of PDP. The party deserves a befitting burial at least.

greatiyk4u:
The wicked PDP shall know no peace

amen

zlantanfan:
It is clear that the impunity which saraki and other defectors cited for leaving PDP is very much alive, only that the impunity is favouring each of their hypothetical ego's this time around.

After the PDP primaries they would officially recognized the impunity when they get nothing again including kwankwanso who is leading the burial committee in the north west

Brain dead Buhari supporter aka Zombie... ..Who appointed you a judge over PDP affairs?

Even thieves have some honour....

[quote author=hisexcellency34 post=70894773]Crisis is currently brewing between the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Lagos State chapter of the party over who succeeds Moshood Salvador, the immediate past chairman of the party, who defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) last week.

Members of the party later settled for Dr. Adegbola Dominic, a medical practitioner, who was a governorship aspirant of the party in the 2015 election.

Dominic, a former National Chairman of the Action Party of Nigeria (APN), also contested the state chairmanship election with Salvador where he came second.
Our correspondent learnt that the choice of Dominic as Salvador’s replacement was arrived at following a consensus of opinions among the party leaders in the state, especially its apex leader, Chief Olabode George, a former Deputy National Chairman of the PDP.

When contacted, Dominic confirmed the new development in the party, saying leaders met to agree on his choice following the move by Salvador to leave the PDP for the APC.
He also confirmed that he was in Abuja to deliver the letter containing the decision of the party leaders led by Chief George to appoint him as replacement for Salvador.
He said informing the party national headquarters was in line with the laid down rules and regulations.
“I was in Abuja. I just came back last night. I took the letter there, to the PDP headquarters, we did that to follow the protocol in the party,” he said.
However, to the shock of PDP supporters in Lagos, the national leadership of the party, in a letter dated Wednesday, August 29, which was seen by Daily Independent, announced the choice of Alhaji Waliu Ibrahim as the Acting State Chairman of the party.
Ibrahim was deputy to Salvador and, according to the letter signed by Sen. Umaru Ibrahim Tsauri, the National Secretary is to serve as the acting chairman for 90 days.

The letter titled, ‘Appointment as Acting Chairman of Lagos State PDP Chapter’, reads: “This is to officially inform you that the National Working Committee (NWC) of our great party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has directed that you assume the position of State Chairman of Lagos PDP in acting capacity in line with Section 35(1) (c) of our party’s constitution which stipulates that:
“In the event of resignation, removal, death, incapacitation, or absence of the Chairman, the Deputy Chairman shall assume office as chairman in acting capacity without prejudice to section 47 (6) of this constitution.
“This became necessary due to the resignation of the state chairman. Nonetheless, you are to continue in acting capacity till further notice, which shall not exceed 90 days (three months).”
While the PDP NWC claimed that it followed the directives in the party’s constitution, members of the party in Lagos are said to have rejected what they called the imposition of Ibrahim.
The Lagos chapter said it was wrong for the party to determine for them who presided over their affair without carrying them along.
According to a member of the state exco, the ploy to reject Dominic, the choice of the majority of the party members was Prince Uche Secondus, the PDP National Chairman, wants to take control of the structure of the party from Bode George and hand it over to Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State.
Our source said, having cheated Bode George out of the national chairmanship race, Governor Wike is attempting to take the structure of the party in Lagos away
“Majority of us are not happy with the decision of the PDP NWC. I think they are just playing politics with the whole issue while hiding behind the party’s constitution.
“We in Lagos PDP decided that the position of state chairman should be retained by Lagos West and we all adopted Dr. Dominic. It is unfair for the national leadership to reject him and impose another person on us.
“They claimed they are relying on the party’s constitution but they should take a cue from what happened in the APC.
“When Lai Mohammed, who was the APC’s National Publicity Secretary, left his position to become Minister, Timi Frank, who was the Deputy National Publicity Secretary, thought he would be the substantive publicity secretary based on the provision of the party’s constitution, but the party told him that ‘No, you cannot assume the position because it was zoned to the North-Central and that zone must retain it. That was how Bolaji Abdullahi who just resigned his position became the publicity secretary.
“That was our position, too, in Lagos PDP. We agreed that the position should be retained by Lagos West but the NWC said the deputy chairman who hails from Lagos East should take over. It is unfair,” he sai

Bode George is the problem of PDP Lagos State
