2019: Delegates list crisis likely at PDP convention
A delegate’s list crisis is likely at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) convention, The Nation learnt last night.
The party yesterday handed over the list of delegates to its 13 presidential aspirants for scrutiny.
All the aspirants have engaged coordinators to screen the list for loopholes. It has been discovered that the list is incomplete as it does not have the names of many delegates from Lagos, Borno and Kano.
A source, who spoke in confidence, said: “We have received the list of delegates from the party. We have engaged experts, coordinators and experienced hands in party convention to screen the list.
“The immediate challenge is the discovery that the list is incomplete because it does not contain the exact number of delegates from Lagos, Borno and Kano.”
