Youths Protest Rumoured Plan By Saraki, Others To Rejoin PDP by Islie: 11:40am On Feb 13, 2018
Success Nwogu, Ilorin


Some youths in the Kwara State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party on Monday protested against the rumoured plan by the Senate President , Dr Bukola Saraki; his former special adviser on Special Duties and Parliamentary Affairs , Alhaji Moshood Mustapha ( popularly known as MM); and other associates of the Senate President to defect from the All Progressives Congress to the PDP.

The youths , on the sidelines of a media briefing by a PDP group , Face of Change , displayed placards that expressed their opposition to the rumoured defection.

Some of the placards read: ‘ No to Bukola Saraki and cronies in the PDP , ’ ‘ MM defection is a liability , ’ ‘ PDP exco, shine your eyes , ’ and ‘ PDP gov ticket is not for sale . ’

The state Coordinator, Face of Change , Alhaja Kubrat Abdullateef, however, said in an interview with journalists in Ilorin , the Kwara State capital , that the protesters were only expressing their personal views , adding that they were not part of the conference .

She said , “ What we are trying to do is that we do not want a repeat of what had happened in the past when Bukola Saraki planted his cronies in our party and we had a very rancorous primary. We are guarding against that and we do not want a repeat of that . Those who are carrying placards , that is their personal opinion . ”

Abdullateef lamented the action of some members of the party , which she said , bordered on anti - party activities .

She said , “ With the spate of incidents over the last couple of weeks , it seems the party is apathetic to anti - party (activities ). As much as we welcome new members into our party , it is important to highlight the fact that there is a laid- down process that allows one to be a member of our party . ”

The state Secretary of the PDP , Mr. Gidado Alakawa , said the party was not against the entry of new members or the return of former members , adding that new members and returnees must however abide by the constitution, process and procedures of the party .

He also stressed that the protesters were only expressing their democratic rights, adding that the party leadership did not have the power to reject new members.

“Everything we do in this party follows certain procedures and rules. To that extent , there is always this opportunity for free entry and free exit .

There should not be anything personal about people coming into the party . Generally , people that want to come to the party are free to come as long as they are ready to work with the rules and regulations that guide entry into the party .

“ There are rules that govern any form of re- admittance of any former member of the party , who for whatever reason left the party and is now coming back into the party . It is not for the party leadership to say who must not come in or who must come in.

“ Beyond that , the party already has a structure and the structure is working along with the constitution. So those people saying they do not want X , Y to come into the party , that is their opinion but the party leadership will do whatever they can to work in line with the constitution and in line with the desire of the majority of our people to be sure the party wins in all elections. ”

So far Saraki has done well as Senate President and as such I will welcome him to the PDP. I do not want to use sentiment to judge him but as per performance he has performed and still performing. The Senate under his leadership is not a rubber stamp.

World 7 Current World’s Youngest Presidents and Leaders



The world's youngest leaders hail from across the globe — from democracies, monarchies, and dictatorships in Eastern and Western Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

While six of them are men, the youngest, Vanessa D'Ambrosio, the 28-year-old captain regent of San Marino is the only woman among the list.

A former civil servant and investment banker, he studied philosophy at Paris Nanterre University, completed a Master's of Public Affairs at Sciences Po, and graduated from the École nationale d'administration (ENA) in 2004. He worked as an Inspector of Finances in the Inspectorate General of Finances (IGF), then became an investment banker at Rothschild & Cie Banque
