The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party has rewarded the Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, with the party’s governorship ticket for the 2019 election, an investigation by SUNDAY PUNCH has revealed.

Tambuwal is on the list of the party’s 36 governorship candidates being prepared to be submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission.

Tambuwal was among the 13 presidential aspirants of the party, who contested the primary at the national convention of the party held in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, between October 6 and 7.

The primary was won by a former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, with Tambuwal coming a distant second.

A member of the NWC of the party, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told our correspondent that the party took the decision to reward Tambuwal with the ticket based on his loyalty and understanding with the members of the State Working Committee of the PDP.

He said the party had also reached an agreement with all other presidential aspirants that they would not be abandoned irrespective of the outcome of the last presidential primary.

He said, “We are forging ahead with our preparation and like we said, all segments of the party are being carried along.

“We have given the governorship ticket to Aminu Tambuwal to be our candidate in Sokoto State next year. He is a good party man and we also know that he will deliver the state to the PDP.

“We couldn’t have denied him the governorship ticket just because he wanted to be the presidential candidate, which he lost to another eminently qualified person, Atiku Abubakar.”

The governor paid the N12m, charged by the party for its presidential nomination and expression of interest forms.

Good development. PDP is a fair minded party.

What a shithole zoogeria!

Who is tambuwa?

We keep recycling old basterds

for more money in his bank account

I think next time they shouldn't nbe a to to substitute candidate its so unfair for those that have worked so hard to win the primaries. So unfair.

Was there any INEC supervised PDP governorship primaries in Sokoto?
If not, PDP will lose the Zamfara APC gubernatorial candidate presentation battle.
"he who goes to equity, must go with clean hands".

okay we are watching

like Apc, like Pdp. birds of a feather

Tambuwal, please try n retire Wamakko indefinitely

People that keep to their promises can be trusted. Not a party that abandon those loyal to them, a good case study is Sani Shehu.

This is good politicking from PDP unlike the APC house of commotion.

Obediently Atikulating which vehicle to use and pack pa Buhari's load back to Daura.

The same way APC built on the mistakes of PDP to win 2015 is the same way PDP is capitalizing on APC mistakes. Right now PDP is a soft sell call mpared to APC which is a hard sell to Nigerians and the world at large.
History repeating itself.
I know PDP will so out perform APC in all aspect of this election and pray that ourdear president will vacate Aso rock like Jonathan did.

Aboki wey get sense, unlike Ewu sani
