Tukur’s Resignation Cannot Solve PDP’s Many Problems – Obasanjo
A former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, yesterday said that the resignation of Bamanga Tukur as National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP cannot end the party’s many problems.
Speaking with newsmen in Abuja, Media Aide to the former President, Tunde Oladunjoye, said Obasanjo had nothing personal against the outgoing PDP Chairman.
He added that Obasanjo would not comment on Tukur’s sudden resignation, stressing that the issues earlier raised by the former President had not been addressed with Tukur’s exit.
“Baba (Obasanjo) has no comment on the resignation of Tukur. He has nothing personal against Tukur. His last letter to Tukur was very clear. The issues raised are beyond Tukur’s resignation and they are yet to be addressed,” Oladunjoye said.
Reacting to Obasanjo’s comment, the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, said Obasanjo should have written directly to the party if he wanted the issues he raised to be addressed.
Metuh said, “The former President was a Chairman of the Board of Trustees of our party and he knows very well that we do not administer the party on the pages of newspapers. If he had written a letter to the party, it would have been addressed through the proper channel, not on the pages of newspapers.”
