At the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, convention ongoing at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt, Rivers state, at least 138 lawmakers who are delegates have reportedly backed the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, an aide to Saraki has revealed.

Saraki is one of the 13 contenders for the party’s presidential ticket.

According to the aide, both the South-East and the North-East delegates have split over whom to vote between Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar and Saraki.

The aide also revealed that 37 votes from delegates living with disabilities have equally gone to Saraki.

According to him, “Following marathon meetings with 22 state caucuses and PDP blocs, Saraki has secured the votes of all the North Central States, 138 federal lawmakers and at least 37 votes from people with disabilities.”

He however said that while 34 serving lawmakers have backed the Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, that 28 others have gone for Atiku.

He said among the 5 States in the South-East, that delegates have been split between Saraki and Atiku on a 3:2 basis, while in the North-East, delegates have been split between Saraki and Atiku on a 3:3 basis.

He also claimed that all North Central delegate caucuses have backed Saraki.

Meanwhile, one of the 13 aspirants jostling for the party’s ticket, Tanimu Turaki, has asked PDP delegates to vote for Saraki if, for whatever reasons, they reject him.

Turaki, in a video produced hereunder, said only him and Saraki possess the pedigree, competence and character to solve Nigeria’s problems.

He said, should the delegates reject him, that they should however, not hesitate to vote for Saraki whom he said is his brother.

Atiku should please step down for Saraki. The youths of this country are crying

Saraki would make a good bargain...

Its an oppurtunity to the North central, if the NW and NE dont vote him, they have lost the one north domination.

He has the SE/SS backing and generational ties with the SW..

HE IS APC'S GREATEST THREAT..

Whoever comes out between Saraki and Atiku is good enough to send the terrorist away

Recycling corrupt and incompetent politician deceiving Nigerians with political parties.

But still; Anything to send a lifeless man back to daura is allowed and will be welcomed.

you're on your own cry well.

All these fake news .
You can never know who the delegates will vote for until the last minute ,they will keep on collecting money till the last minute to the electionS.

Sarakis position as the current undisputed naija political champion will further be reaffirmed if he wins PDP presidential candidacy.

The dude is no doubt a strategist.

Yorubas are too sophisticated for that only acn now apc Yorubas are for Buhari! The regiion is 50:50!

This propaganda will not help Saraki. Soon results will be out.

Let us all join hands to #GrowNigeria!

Those who have seen the light have trailed it! Support Senator Bukola Saraki for the PDP 's presidential ticket
Let us work together to booth out the current caretakers of Aso Rock Villa

If PDP gives Saraki their ticket I may consider voting for them because of two reasons. 1 He is overqualified though with corruption cases but can integrity alone solve our Problems? No 2 He is a Yoruba like me. Win win win for omo odua

I don tire for all these talks about the primaries...shey they will soon be done and announce the result, then we know who the winner is.

They should give it to Atiku, the most 'formidable' candidate to give the man from Niger a run for his money.

PDP convention is a scam and big joke...mere listen to secondus ll tell u all isn't well with d party...dey never change...they mention APC more than 10000 times than PDP , I was like is it APC convention or PDP.....dey just dey market APC up and down.......
