News emerged on the alleged tearing of the Peoples’ Democratic Party membership card by former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Our source who spoke recently to the aide of the former President of Nigeria in Abuja, Nigeria said Chief Olusegun Obasanjo did not openly tear his PDP membership card as widely reported by the Nigerian press.

Recall sometime in 2015, the ex-president while speaking at the Global Education and Skills Forum, (GESF) in Dubai, the United Arab Emirate, said he did not tear his PDP membership card adding that he is not aware, maybe somebody else did it if the story that made the rounds then was anything to go by.

According to the former President, ” “I didn’t openly tear my PDP membership card; somebody else tore it because I said to him, ‘Here is the card, do whatever you like with it. “If you like keep it; if you like tear it, if you like burn it. Here it is because they say it is giving them concern and they don’t know what is happening.

”I did that to prove to them what is happening; I could not have torn the party’s membership card.”

This is in wake of the alleged threats made by Nigeria’s literary giant , Prof Wole’s Soyinka to tear his American Green Card if Donald Trump wins the US presidential election.

Obasanjo’s aide faulted the threat adding that it amounts to a criminal offence which is not only actionable but also punishable that is capable of earning Soyinka a custodial sentence if the threat is by any act of omission or commission carried out.

Speaking further, our source produced a photograph of the former president where he publicly displayed his PDP membership card saying that Obasanjo though no longer an active member of the former ruling party did not tear the party’s property knowing full well what it would amount to

On the contrary, pictorial evidence in the photograph below shows where what looks like the card in contention was actually torn. What is being called in question here, however, is if the damaged property belongs to the former President.

Tested and Trusted!

A top contestant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National chairmanship, Prince Uche Secondus, Tuesday warned against imposition of candidates in the 2019 general election, saying that PDP will only reclaim power from the ruling All Progressives Congress(APC) through popular candidates.

He said the party has no security and INEC and that only popular candidates will see the PDP through to the general election.
He therefore warned against imposition of candidate in the December 9 and 10 national convention of the PDP.
Secondus spoke at government House Abakaliki while addressing Governor Dave Umahi and the state working PDP to officially inform the governor and the state PDP of his interest to contest the national chairmanship of the party.



He maintained that it would be totally wrong and absurd for unpopular candidate to think that he would win the national chairmanship of the party when he cannot deliver his ward, constituency, state and zone to the party in 2019.
He noted that the PDP under his watch will not be superintended over by those he called Abuja politicians as it has always been but by the grassroots who he said power belong to.

Secondus said: “Our mission is to rebuild, to reposition and to regain the lost ground come 2019 general election. We are very committed with passion to make sure that our party within the next few months is quickly repositioned and be ready for elections”.
“We will remain focused on our mission because I came from the state that relatively have peace and a zone that also has peace. I will focus on only one agenda which is to rebuild, to reposition and at the same time to regain the lost ground.

“In the past, the whole order has been that the Abuja politicians took over the responsibility of our party at the state and the grassroots. If God gives me the responsibility, we will return power to the grassroots and our reward system will change.

“People that cannot vote at the ward levels, at the polling unit levels and they are now recognised in Abuja. The people in Abuja have data, contact and collections. What is politics all about if not to win election?. And if you cannot win election, you are not so important. So, we will bring new system that our people will be very happy to take their destiny in their own hands.
“We will allow the constituencies, states to conduct congress and I am saying that because of my experiences as a state party chairman. Let the leaders in the state organise and elect popular candidates. We don’t have security, we don’t have INEC and Abuja cannot change and begin to superintend over whatever decision of the states that have been taken.

“All we need to do in my time, we will concur with every decision of the state. If the popular candidate is elected and stands election he will win. I will lead from the Wadata House Abuja and I will rotate the headquarters of our party. It is time to get back to the people with massive and aggressive membership drive and return power to them. We don’t have time at all.
“Anyone that wants to contest this election that will not win his ward and constituency and cannot win his state and zone has no business . It is time to know that if you cannot deliver your constituency, if you cannot deliver your state and you are seeking for the office of the National Chairman, which votes do you want?.

“It will be totally wrong and absurd for anyone to think that he can take the votes of Ebonyi, you cannot deliver your state and you are now our National chairman. By the special grace of God, I will deliver my state and I will deliver my zone to the cover of the party. If we deliver state by state, that is the only way we can win the 2019 general election; the Presidency and all other positions”, Secondus said.

Receiving Secondus who was led by former Deputy Speakers of House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha Austin Okpara, and some party chieftains, Governor Umahi described him as very experienced for the PDP Chairmanship position.
He noted that Secondus was the only PDP chieftains the can vouch that did not receive bribe from politicians during the last PDP primaries for the last general election to give them ticket.

“You are experienced and I want to commend you. When we were vying for the party ticket, you are one person that didn’t collect anything from any of the governors or anybody. Everybody attests to that.
“Some people asked us to give. I didn’t give anybody either. But a day of reckoning has come and such people, we will not vote for them when they show their faces.

“We must do everything possible to eliminate bribery and corruption in our party politics, it is very important. So, I want you to do everything possible if God takes you there to eliminate this issue of bribery and corruption.
“I want to assure you that there will be a level playing ground for all the contestants.
“This time around, sir, the South East will negotiate very seriously with anybody that the South East will vote. It will not be on the party level. We want to negotiate and know what is coming in for us. This is very important”, Umahi said.
