PDP BoT warns members to stop campaigning for aspirants
The Board of Trustees (BoT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has warned its members against identifying or campaigning for any of the 13 presidential aspirants of the party.
Speaking shortly after a meeting in Abuja on Thursday, the chairman of the BoT, Senator Walid Jibrin, reminded members of their role as conscience of the party.
Jibrin said, “If you are a member of BoT, you remain the conscience of the party and you should not be moving about with any aspirant.
“If we are really the conscience of the party, we should not move about with aspirants. That was what happened during the last national convention when we elected the national chairman.
“Some of us went and pitched camps with aspirants, taking them all over the place. This time, we will not allow that to happen.
“Anyone of us who moves about with any aspirant should resign from the BoT. We are the ones that will settle the complaints.
“But if we are involved, then it will not be fair. So we have told our members not to campaign with the aspirants because we are also the delegates”.
