According to the protesters, who came from Suleja Local Government Area of Niger State, Maibasira had allegedly been romancing with the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Niger against the interest of the PDP.

They also warned the PDP leadership not to impose the former Niger State chairman of the party, Tanko Beji, for another tenure against their preferred choice of Mukhtar Ahmed.
