Cracks in PDP BoT over support for presidential aspirants
All is not well among the members of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party over their support for the party’s presidential aspirants, The PUNCH learnt on Thursday.
The Board had, at its meeting last week, directed its members to be neutral and not declare any private or public support for any of the party’s 13 presidential aspirants.
The Chairman of the Board, Senator Walid Jibrin, who spoke after the meeting, said members of the BoT should remain as the conscience of the party.
The PUNCH correspondent gathered that the board discussed the matter at its meeting before having discussions with the aspirants in Abuja on Thursday night.
