Ahead of the September 6 primaries of the Peoples Democratic Party in Adamawa State, there are indications that six governorship aspirants have resolved to sue the party if it finally gives waiver to Malam Nuhu Ribadu to run in the primaries.
The angry aspirants claimed that Ribadu is being favoured by some forces in the presidency and that he may not only be granted waiver but favoured to pick the party’s ticket for the October 11 governorship election.
Those at the meeting, according sources, were Dr. Umar Ardo, Dr. Aliyu Idi Hong, Senator Abubakar Girei, Alhaji Awwal Tukur and Alhaji Ahmed Gulak.
One of the aspirants told DailyTrust that they consider it unfair on the side of those of them who have worked for the party for several years would be shut out while a new member would be given consideration.
A source told the paper that the aggrieved aspirants were planning to stop Ribadu from getting a clearance from his local government after his ward had cleared him.
“If we cannot stop them from killing the party through persuasion, we can at least take the necessary legal action,” he stated.
Dr. Ardo, who confirmed the development expressed his anger, saying that somebody who worked against the interest of the party in its bid to remove Murtala Nyako would now be the beneficiary of the struggle.
Be prepared!!! @folabright Source
