The Board of Trustees (BOT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on Wednesday, took over the leadership of the party, indirectly putting aside the Interim National Caretaker Committee led by former Governor Ahmed Makarfi.
The chairman of the BoT, Walid Jibrin, told staffs of the PDP National Secretariat that the board will pilot the activities of the party pending when the leadership crisis will be resolved.
“Today, the BOT remains the only legal body now in the whole set up and that is why we are here to play our role.”
“We are not here to take over the secretariat. We are here to perform our duties as enshrined in the constitution, hoping that our problems will be resolved soon.”
“We, the BOT have taken it upon ourselves to ensure we play a great role in resolving the problems.”
“We have gone very far in resolving them. We have made some contacts and consultations. We are not here to cast blame on anybody. If it means to go to anybody to solve the problem, we will do so.”
