As the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) national
convention begins today, one of the
presidential aspirants, Prof. Akasoba Duke
Abiola, has alleged that President Goodluck
Jonathan is using her presidential nomination
form which pre-qualified him for the
convention.
Abiola, who is one of the PDP presidential
aspirants, had insisted that she would not abide
by the decision of the party to endorse
Jonathan as its sole candidates.
Although she has gone to court to challenge
the decision of the party, Akasoba explained
this while addressing journalists on Tuesday
that even after paying her N2 million
nomination form and also being the first
aspirant to pay for the presidential form, the
party has denied her the form.
She described the action of the party against
her and millions of voters as discriminatory and
a coup d’etat against democracy.
“[s]It is an abrogation of the constitution, a
flagrant violation of fundamental human rights
and contrary to all international protocols and
conventions to which Nigeria is a signatory
including the United Nations Charter. Succinctly
put, this is a clear case of political violence
against women. This has become a global
conversation as the endorsement of one
aspirant cannot metamorphose into the
trampling on the fundamental right.
“In the interest of integrity, transparency and
accountability, [/s]we submit that form 001 should
have been given to me, since I was the first to
pay and the first to arrive the party secretariat
for the form,” she said.
Prof. Abiola pointed out that she has been
excluded from the party convention, even as a
presidential aspirant.
Accusing Jonathan of being in possession of her
presidential form, she said: “It is my submission
that the party should give me my form.
Someone got my nomination form and that
person is in Aso Rock and he should give me
my form.”
She added that “if there is any ratification at
the convention today for any person that
person will be standing in for me.
“ The president is intimidating us, let Nigeria tell
that person, the president to give me my
nomination form. I am not scared of them and
nobody will settle me, I am not for settling.
Jonathan should give me my form and if he
does not, he is depriving me of my right. If
there is any ratification at the convention,
Jonathan is poaching my delegates.”

GEJ afraid of primaries? You wish. GEJ defeated Atiku hands down in 2011. Facing this Abiola woman wouldn't be a problem. Am just hearing about her existence for the first time.

Great...let the court decide, in case he wins, then she wins automatically.
A PDP led government that professes that it shall create gender equality.
Nonsense.Anyway, congrats to Mrs. Abiola as President in case Jonathan wins the election next year.

You miss the whole point. Let Jonathan stop trampling on people's rights, let democracy prevail.

major466:
Why do I have this strange feeling that APC is using Prof Abiola to cause confusion in PDP, a very peaceful party?
She must be dreaming if she thinks she stand an atom chance against almighty GEJ.
