THESE are not be the best of times for the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, the self acclaimed largest party in Africa and its managers following the lingering crisis and the in-house bickering.
.
In the last couple of weeks, the Alhaji Bamanga Tukur-led National Working Committee, NWC, has been entangled in a debacle in which some party leaders try to outdo one another. At the heart of it all is the issue of who controls the machinery of the party ahead of the 2015 general elections.
.
Though the problems existed before Tukur became the National Chairman of PDP on March 24, 2012, the climax came on August 31, 2013 at Eagle Square, Abuja, venue of the PDP Special National Convention when former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and six aggrieved governors staged a walkout.
.
Atiku and the six governors later addressed a press conference on the formation of a 'New PDP' with a former Acting National Chairman of the party, Alhaji Abubakar Kawu Baraje, named the National Chairman; Sam Sam Jaja as Deputy National Chairman and Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola as National Secretary.
Now Nigerians are very confused cos the whole thing is just getting too much from that political party. They need to stop once and for all
