Crisis In PDP: Jigawa Chapter Disowns Alleged Convention Delegates.
The Jigawa State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has disavowed individuals presenting themselves as delegates at the party’s convention in Ibadan, clarifying that no official delegate from the state participated in the event amid the ongoing national crisis within the party.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Aliyu Jalam Gumel, the state PDP chairman, issued the statement late Saturday on his official Facebook page, asserting that the Jigawa chapter had no representation at the convention. His remarks came hours after the gathering proceeded despite a recent Federal High Court injunction halting the exercise and reaffirming former Governor Sule Lamido’s eligibility to contest party leadership positions.
Gumel accused the impostors of circulating false claims online, presenting themselves as elected delegates from Jigawa. “These impostors do not represent us. Jigawa PDP is committed to genuine reconciliation and legal processes that unite, not divide, our great party,” he said.
He further described anyone claiming to be a Jigawa delegate at the Ibadan convention as “a fraudster” and emphasized that the chapter’s boycott of the event aligns with the Federal High Court ruling restoring Lamido’s right to contest.
“The Jigawa chapter, under my leadership, has boycotted the event entirely. This stance complies with the court judgment favoring Lamido’s participation in party processes,” Gumel stated, adding that the chapter would only engage in lawful and inclusive party activities.
Expressing concern over the state of the party, he lamented the ongoing internal conflicts but reassured that Jigawa PDP remained committed to restoring unity. “Our chapter is resolute in participating only in processes that will reconcile our party. We call upon leaders to reach out to all aggrieved parties and find a solution to this crisis,” he said.
Reiterating the chapter’s position, Gumel warned the public against recognizing anyone claiming to represent Jigawa at the convention. “The Jigawa State Chapter of the PDP has distanced itself from the ongoing convention. Any person claiming to be a delegate from Jigawa State is a fraudster,” he concluded.
