President Goodluck Jonathan
may have directed the
National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Dr. Bamanga Tukur, and other members of the PDP National
Working Committee to resign.
It was learnt on
Monday that Jonathan gave the
directive after the
presidential committee on the PDP crises headed by the Secretary to the
Government of the Federation, Chief Pius Anyim,
submitted its report to him in
Abuja .
The order and submission of the report which noted that the
party was drifting coincided with the lifting of the suspension of Sokoto State
Governor, Aliyu Wamakko, by the 12-member
Tukur-led NWC.
A member of the
presidential committee, added that Tukur and
the other NWC members would
tender their resignation letters at the
party’s National Executive Committee meeting scheduled for Thursday in Abuja.
He said apart from the PDP internal crises, the President was concerned about the position of the Independent National
Electoral Commission on the manner majority of the NWC members
came to office.
