PDP North East caucus brainstorms on Tukur’s successor

BAUCHI – The North-East chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says
it has begun consultations with other stakeholders of the party to elect a
new National Chairman of the party from the zone.

The Zonal Publicity Secretary of the party, Alhaji Al-Amin Mohammed, said
this in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in
Bauchi on Friday.

Mohammed said that the consultations were spearheaded by the PDP Governors
in the zone, the party’s zonal leadership, elders, ministers from the zone
and other stakeholders.

He assured that the stakeholders would beat the Monday deadline for the
emergence of a new chairman of the party as directed by the President.

Mohammed said that already, the National Executive Council (NEC) of the
party had directed the leadership of the party in the zone to produce a new
national chairman of the party before Monday next week.

It will be recalled that President Goodluck Jonathan announced the
resignation of Alhaji Bamanga Tukur as PDP National Chairman at the NEC
meeting of the party on Thursday.

The party’s zonal publicity secretary said that the position of the PDP
National Chairman had been zoned to the North-East zone of the country.

“The National Executive Council of the party has already directed that the
new chairman be picked from the zone as the position is slotted to it,” the
zonal publicity secretary said. (NAN)
