Following the statement by the Kwara State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that its petition to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) led to the invitation of wife of the Senate President, Mrs. Toyin Saraki, the national headquarters has directed the state chapter to disclaim the statement.

A highly ranked member of the party, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, revealed that the national headquarters the party called immediately the story was published by major newspapers on their websites.


In a statement early today, the party’s  state publicity secretary, Rex Olawoye, was quoted as revealing how the petition the party submitted in early this year to the EFCC detailing how certain individuals in higher places during the tenure of Saraki as Kwara State governor milked the state dry was instrumental to the invitation of the former first lady of the state.


According to the petition, Mrs Saraki was fingered alongside one Mr. Ope Saraki, former special adviser to former governor Bukola Saraki on MDGs, Saraki’s personal assistant, one Mr. Abdul Adama from Kogi State and a former commissioner for information, Mr. Tunji Morounfoye, in an alleged cesspool of corruption which he described as unprecedented in the history of Kwara state or any other state.


The All Progressives Congress (APC) has been enmeshed in supremacy battle following the refusal of some of his federal lawmakers to abide by party’s directives in choosing leaders of the national assembly.


The PDP sees the crisis as a way of making an in-road in national limelight following his ouster from the federal government in the March 2015 presidential election.


Following the election of Senator Bukola Saraki, a former governor under the party, as president of the Senate through the of the PDP senators,  the party has not hidden its joy, as of the party see that as a payback for what of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN (now APC) did during the election of the House of Representatives election that produced Hon. Aminu Tambuwal as speaker.


The source said: “The party wants the crisis in the party to continue so that it can reclaim some of its back into its fold. They are leaving no stone unturned in this bid and that was why the party ordered its federal lawmakers to team up with Sen Saraki and House speaker, Yakubu Dogara during the leadership election.


“Their projection is that sooner or later, Saraki and others would be forced to dump the APC or divide it and so that will give them the opportunity to redeem its structure. The party is not satisfied with the ongoing invitations of those that worked with its government. And they were shocked to see the statement by the PDP. To cut the story short, the Kwara PDP is not satisfied with the state of the nation.

Kwara State is no longer viable and they are doing everything possible to make sure that the man who underdeveloped the state is brought to book.


“Our national publicity secretary, Chief Olisah Metuh just called, expressing his displeasure over the statement. Why should he be controlling us. He ordered us to disregard the statement but we are not ready but we know they may go behind to react on our behalf and put our names to make it look like we backtracked,” the source said.

those dudes below

wetin i do una

PDP why? Why?

When will this party be mentioned for something good?

When will this corruption-stricken umbrella party mean well for Nigeria? This shows that even if PDP rules Nigeria for a 100yrs, as long as you belong to the party or you favour the party in anyway, you are above the law.

If bukky's wife goes scot-free, this same useless PDP will be the one accusing buhari of being bias in his anti-corruption fight. Na so Olisa metuh,(with that hin mouth wey be like fowl yansh) go gather press dey talk rubbish. Nairaland PDP sef go dey write empty articles as usual.

I really hope Nigerians are seeing this

LOL. I guess The Atani--Jagaban of Africa paid PDP kwara branch to make such statements. It has already served it purpose. They may go ahead to denounce it once Jagaban gives the green light.

Is this a trailer to PART THREE of the story? Waiting for the full release of the third episode

Too bad.
Nigerians are getting smarter day-in day-out, PDP is just a party, so also is APC.
If PDP thinks breaking one party is enough to make them claim supremacy back
in Nigeria then they are in a 'jonzing' world. Both parties better start performing
and let propaganda roast itself to natural death. We Nigerians are patiently
watching and waiting with our voters card come next election season.
If PMB can cleanse corruption in Naija to some extent that will accentuate his
personality not necessarily party credibility.
People can really vote for PERSONALITY rather PARTY as was the case in EKITI.

Lol... PDP is now becoming a comic party

PDP people deceiving people since 1810BC...smh
They sincerely need a refresher course on how to be an opposition because its going to a long journey back to power for them,that is if it'll happen in this century,useless bunch of individuals with cyclopegia verbal diarrhoea and comatose brain status

Of what nid is d withdrawal??

B

Two types of PDP in play here;
1. The Kwara Chapter bent on getting justice against the Sarakis and

2. The National PDP who would gladly erase and overlook the many sins of the Sarakis just because they're desperate to return to winning ways.

Just when PDP thought they still have it.... As always, the house is divided against itself, even in its fall

Since Ive been following this Saraki wife issue, I've always assumed Saraki to be a PDP man... but then it just dawned on me once again that Saraki is actually in the APC.

A queer case of a PDP man in APC clothing.

.

Politics.....they will keep telling us this kind of story till 2019 then election stories will start again

What is there to declaim after they have already claim and it they are the backbone to the probe, pdp gone high in isoko weed since 1800 B.C

This government don dey tire me sef...but make we dey watch them
