Days of Bamanga Tukur, National Working Committee Are Numbered – New PDP


The New PDP, inspired by Wednesday’s Court of Appeal reversal of the sacking of ex-Osun State Governor, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, as the National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has declared the days of Alhaji Bamanga Tukur and his illegal National Working Committee (NWC) in the Wadata Plaza Headquarters of the party as numbered.
Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, the National Publicity Secretary of the New PDP, said in a statement that the members would storm the PDP National Secretariat the following Monday, November 11th, for Prince Oyinlola’s swearing in, and urged the PDP National Legal Adviser Mr. Victor Kwom not to delay it.
“This is just one of the anomalies we have been complaining of that came about due to lack of internal democracy in our party occasioned by the undemocratic elements that hijacked the structure of our party and we are relying so much on the Judiciary to help us in addressing other anomalies that gave rise to our present struggle and restore hope back to our party,” the statement commented about the court victory.
The New PDP expressed the hope that very soon, its other court cases asking for the dissolution of the Tukur-led NWC would be given the same serious attention to enable them formally take over the reins of the party and restore it to the path of honour, justice and democratic norms which Tukur and his cohorts have bastardised.
It also expressed its sympathy with the former National Secretary, Prof. Wale Oladipo, who it said achieved the unenviable record as the shortest reigning PDP National Secretary since the formation of the party.
“As we commend and congratulate Prince Oyinlola for this feat, we urge him not to be corrupted by the undemocratic toxic that may have been dropped in his office by Prof. Oladipo as many Nigerians look up to him to not only to restore hope to the PDP but to also use his magic wand to unify the party. We are happy of sending him back to the Wadata Plaza in advance as our present day John the Baptist to prepare and to announce to the world of our arrival as the authentic NWC of our great party within the next few weeks,” the statement concluded.
