Anxiety Over Tukur As Jonathan Meets Govs Lamido, Aliyu

[Shola Sholaz]

Anxiety enveloped the camp of the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Bamangar Tukar, yesterday, as President Goodluck Jonathan and Vice President Namadi Sambo prepared to meet with two rebel governors – Sule Lamido of Jigawa State and Babangida Aliyu of Niger State- today over their disagreement with the leadership of the ruling party.
.
Sunday Vanguard gathered that the meeting, scheduled to take place at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, will also have in attendance  the Chairman, Board of Trustees, BoT, of PDP, Chief Tony Anenih, as well as some leaders and stakeholders of the party.
.
Lamido and Aliyu had stayed back in the PDP after their five colleagues in the G7, the platform on which they fought the PDP leadership, defected to the opposition All Progressive Congress (APC). The five governors who defected are Rotimi Amaechi (Rivers), Abdufatah Ahmed (Kwara), Murtala Nyako (Adamawa), Aliyu Wammako (Sokoto) and Rabiu Kwankwaso (Kano).
.
The meeting is a follow up to the one. Jonathan and Sambo held last Sunday with the governors elected on the platform of PDP where problems affecting the party were raised, but there was no consensus, especially as it came after the defection of the five of the governors in the G7 to the APC.

I'm just waiting to see how the whole drama of PDP will unfold in the nearest future.
They don't need what they are currently doing
