Atiku Backs Anti-damagum Forces, Wants PDP Chair Ouster | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has thrown his weight behind the plot to unseat the acting National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Umar Damagum.

Atiku reached out to members of the PDP National Working Committee, advocating for Damagum’s ouster, sources told newsmen on Sunday.

This move to remove Damagum has divided the 13 state governors elected on the PDP platform, with seven governors led by Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed pushing for Damagum’s removal, while four others, led by Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, support his retention.

Atiku and Wike fell apart ahead of last year’s general elections, with Wike leading five PDP governors to oppose Atiku’s presidential bid.

A senior member of the PDP NWC, who requested anonymity, confirmed that the former Vice President had reached out to some of the anti-Damagum forces and other party stakeholders.

The source stated, “We are not alone; important leaders in the party, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, have spoken with some of us.”

The source added, “Atiku assured us that we are not alone and that he supports our pursuit of justice, fairness, and equity. He encouraged us to stay motivated and continue advocating for the PDP Constitution to be followed in the NWC’s daily decisions.”

When asked if Atiku wants Damagum removed, the source explained, “It’s not about Damagum; the former Vice President is focused on democracy and the PDP. Atiku prefers to work discreetly to repair what has been damaged.”

However, attempts to reach Atiku’s media adviser, Paul Ibe, for a response were unsuccessful.

In a related development, PDP NEC member and Deputy National Youth Leader, Timothy Osadolor, has called on party leaders to set aside their differences and refrain from verbal conflicts.

Osadolor expressed confidence in the reconciliation and disciplinary committees, urging all stakeholders to let them operate diligently without distractions.
