The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reportedly directed all members of the party to stay away from talking about the strategies for the 2023 elections.
A PDP chieftain said this decision was compulsory because it would avoid a situation whereby mischief makers will set PDP members against each other.
The chieftain added that the party decided for things to be that way to safeguard the strategy that will be adopted in the zoning of its 2023 presidential ticket.
The source had this to say, βYes, it is true that we had an enlarged meeting where we took a collective decision that none of us should comment on our partyβs plans, particularly as regards the zoning of our partyβs presidential ticket for 2023.
βThat decision was taken to avoid a situation whereby mischief makers and their sponsors will be setting our prominent chieftains against one another to the detriment of our collective interest as a party.
βYou must have read a recent media report where a harmless interview granted by the chairman of our Board of Trustees (BoT), Senator Walid Jibrin, was twisted to serve some sinister purposes.β
