PDP Crisis: BOT Member, ABC Nwosu Resigns by WORDSENSEI(op): 8:16am On Jan 13, 2023
A prominent member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees, Professor ABC Nwosu, has resigned his membership from the party.

Nwosu announced his decision in a letter dated Thursday, January 12 and addressed to the National Chairman of the PDP,  Iyorchia Ayu.

He stated that the reason for his resignation was due to the "breach in the rotational presidency principle" of the party.

He also said it was "a matter of conscience and principle because of the party’s inability to adhere to the rotation in its constitution."

He stated further: "The journey to rotational presidency between the North and South of the country has been an arduous one, and I have been involved. Nigeria and the Peoples Democratic Party must learn to keep to an agreement reached by a Constituent Assembly (1995) and enshrined in the party’s (PDP) constitution (1998).

THISNIGERIA reports that the party has been enmeshed in crisis since the emergence of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar as presidential candidate of the party.

The crisis escalated after Ayu adamantly refused to resign as the National Chairman of the party as he had promised to do, should the presidential candidate emerge from the North.

The PDP G-5 governor led by Governors Nyesom Wike and Samuel Ortom, alongside other governors: Seyi Makinde, Okezie Ikpeazu, and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, have maintained that Ayu steps down as chairman of the party as both the presidential candidate and national chairman cannot come from the same zone.

However, the duo have remained defiant to the demand.

Good. I have always said that it baffles me why people struggle so hard to sell a northern candidate to the citizenry. It is unfair, inordinate, skewed and a heavy aberration that a Fulani man will become president after the expiration of the 8-year term of another Fulani man. This is the height of insensitivity and aloofness.
This contest is between Tinubu, Obi, Sowore, the SDP man, Kachukwu, Abiola etc.
Why should people take others for granted especially having been offered a pot of porridge? When it was the turn of the north, all southerners, "stood still' for them yet when it rotates to the south, northerners "turn tiger" to contest.
Any southerner supporting this aberration will not go unpunished by the God of equity. Southerners should get sense for once!!!
May it not happen that a northerner becomes president after another northerner-led tenure!

Atiku abubakar should just give up and support people's choice Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu or IPOB choice Peter Obi.

Atiku was a member of the renegade new pdp in 2015. Hood for him. Now he knows he isn’t the only person in pdp. He has lost the election already

Hahahahahaha!

Shit is about to hit the ceiling grin

I won’t be surprised to see Adolphus Wabara and other prominent Igbos and reasonable Nigerians resign from the PDP in the coming days.

That was the game they played against Jonathan.

Let’s teach that two can play the game.

There’s joy in my heart.

In the coming elections, please, bear in mind that your decision matters. Whatever you decide that day can determine not only your future but also your generation. Poverty and insecurity, insecurity and poverty. Zero your mind to fight against this through your votes. If you vote wrongly, even if later you're crying to God, he won't hear you because you're warned.

A CHOICE MAY BE GOOD BUT NOT RIGHT. A RIGHT CHOICE IS THE SOLUTION TO ALL THIS CHAOS.

PLEASE, MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE.

Atiku sef. Because of this our (Northern) turn, he convinced some governors to defect from PDP to the opposition, now that it's his turn to uphold what he fought for, he's talking about party constitution.

I can't vote for two betrayers

Re: PDP Crisis: BOT Member, ABC Nwosu Resigns by Techwriter:
Two things that mattered to Buhari while in office were NORTH & MUSLIM.
Their grand plan was to bring out two aspirants from the 2 dominant parties that will protect and preserve the interest and agenda of Islam. Peter Obi and Labour party is an aberration they didn't plan for but was in God's plan

PDP presidential candidate......North
PDP Chairman........North
PDP presidential DG.....North
PDP presidential spokesman....North

Nigeria President......North.
Check the prominent leaders of APC and see if there's any notable Christian among them. Surprisingly the devil is using Christians like Reno to sponsor this islamization agenda. Many of them and ready to betray Christ for money. Shame on them! what they dont know is that the first man that did it committed suicide after the sale. His name is Judas. All the Bwalas and Reno supporting Muslim Muslim ticket for money are heading for a suicide mission- an agenda that will ultimately destroy them and remove the name of Christ in Nigeria. But god forbid many Christians can see beyond tribe and monetary inducements

Baba you don vex o cheesy

I have said it several times here. I don't know why we still have reasonable southerners campaigning for PDP. Once Atiku succeeds and become the president, then the southerners should kiss the presidential position goodbye
