Gbenga Daniel Left Because PDP, Wike And The South-south Duped Yorubas by ganisucks(f): 12:25pm On Mar 18, 2019 |
Gbenga Daniel, Director General of the Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, announced his resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and from active politics on Saturday, citing a number of reasons. In a letter dated March 14, 2019, and addressed to the National Chairman of the party, the former Governor of Ogun State noted that the decision is personal and that he decided to take on “new challenges”. Gbenga daniels stated reasons * He also said he had decided to “rejuvenate” his charity-based organisation, the Gateway Front Foundation (GFF), and that he wanted to resuscitate the “non-partisan Political Leadership Academy (POLA)”, which was “established some years ago as a platform of political education to our citizens”. * “Notwithstanding these widely acclaimed achievements however, our party, the Peoples Democratic Party ran into trouble waters towards the end of our administration (about the year 2009) which led to the sad loss in the election of 2011, and regrettably ten (10) years after the party has been unable to resolve those internal disputes and challenges. Gbenga Daniels real reasons * Sidelining by the PDP from the moment he helped Atiku Abubakar secure the presidential ticket of the party — an action he considers not just an affront on himself but a continuation of the party’s long-running “disdain” for the South-West. The story of Daniel’s emergence as Atiku’s campaign driector is itself steeped in his interest in the national chairmanship of the party, an ambition he ultimately failed to realise. * “Gbenga Daniel contested the national chairmanship of the party in 2017,” a source at the PDP national secretariat in Abuja, who asked not to be named, told Saharareporters. “Then, everyone agreed, according to the Wike- Ekweremadu report, that the National Chairman should go to the South-West. But Wike, with his overbearing attitude, was everywhere blasting the South-West leadership that they wanted to reap where they did not sow; and in the end, the ticket was taken away from the South-West and taken to the South-South.” Seeing that the PDP’s power brokers, spearheaded by Nyesom Wike, the major financier of the party, were bent on making a south-southerner the National Chairman, Daniel was forced for withdraw from the race. Other politicians from the South-West who also withdrew are Rashidi ladoja, former Oyo State Governor; Jimi Agbaje, perennial Lagos State governorship aspirant; Aderemi Olusegun, an Ekiti State politician; and Bode George, former National Vice Chairman (South-West) of the party, who was very critical of the party. “The zoning principle, which was publicly reinforced last year in Port Harcourt, had specifically and rightly affirmed the South-West as the zone to produce the National Chairman. This binding proclamation was based on equity, fairness and natural balance that hold any organisation together,” George said while announcing his withdrawal. On Sunday, Daniel held a meeting with his ‘political family’, who are now pressuring him to join to the All Progressives Congress (APC). That was a day after Dapo Abiodun, the Ogun State governor-elect, met with him at his home in Maryland, Lagos. Daniel hasn’t decided yet whether to join the APC. www.saharareporters.com/2019/03/18/exclusive-real-reasons-gbenga-daniel-pulled-out-pdp |

APC is an abokii party. PDP is an igbo party. The Afonjas na anywhere belle face. Notice how they vote. Always sitting on the fence. They are neither here nor there. Can yoruba confidently say they voted Buhari? Or is it Atiku they massively voted for? Mtcheeew |

Rubbish thread. In APC osibanjo has already been duped 2. But we are not seeing anyone crying on the pages of newspapers. Now that elections are over, we are no more hearing buhari. But rather, we are now once more hearing THE PRESIDENCY. All of a sudden we are hearing about a certain Obon la(SS) disobeying osibanjo. We know that most of the cabinet reshuffle will be shuffling out Southwestern cards. Na wa 4 9ja. 2 Likes |

Me am tired of hearing why Gbenga left PDP, some said he left cos Atiku lost and he wanted to be SFG, some said Cos Atiku favored saraki during his campaign more than him and now this ..I laugh . Let me tell you why he left, He is an average Nigerian politician, and an average Nigerian politician is selfish,self centred, greedy and and think of his/her pocket first before the masses believe it or not. APC= PDP & PDP=APC ....these guys are all fighting for thier self interest take it or leave it...only the gullible ones will argue with thier keypad. Na were don don dem dey go God bless Nigeria

Hofbrauhaus: actually you are very right just because they ain't so stupid to start struggling in the scheme of things in Nigeria. all they do is permutate the best deal to their advantage. they are after development and well-being of their people, growth in socioeconomic life of their people, etc not chest beating like an ape or gorilla. |
