[Shola Sholaz]

The crises rocking the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, have taken a new twist with governors elected on the platform of the party now pushing for the full implementation of the report of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, on the 2012 National convention.
.
The governors at the end of a closed-door meeting on Wednesday, it was learnt, also pushed for the adoption of a political solution to the problem that led to the exit of the party's National Secretary, former governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola.
.
The governors who met under the platform of the PDP Governors' Forum described the INEC report as a time-bomb for PDP with a warning that failure to implement it would lead to disaster and legal problems for the party.
.
INEC had last month released the report of its monitoring of the 2012 convention of the party in which it alleged that the election that produced majority of the members of the National Working Committee, NWC, was defective and in gross violation of the party's guidelines for the convention.
.
Specifically, INEC had claimed that besides the quartet of the National Chairman, National Secretary, National Auditor and the National Financial Secretary, who went through the process of election with counting of votes, the other members of the NWC who were elected by affirmation failed the guidelines as stipulated by the PDP's convention guidelines.

INEC has done very well so far as far as elections is concerned in this country. They've done very well I must say. Good one!
