PDP CRISIS, HANDWORK OF APC – GOV BALA MOHAMMED
The Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed has alleged that the crisis and internal wrangling rocking the the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are the handwork of All Progressives Congress (APC).
Mohammed disclosed that the APC wanted the party in perpetual disunity and have infiltrated the PDP in Rivers State with moles who will provide the ruling party with information on what’s going in the main opposition party.
He also stated the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, was picked to serve in the APC administration because of the dearth of competent people in APC ranks.
Speaking when the PDP Board of Trustees (BoT) paid him a visit on Wednesday, Mohammed voiced his worry over the power tussle between Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State and his predecessor, Wike.
He stressed the need for the PDP to forge a united front, adding that the challenges that beset the party will be overcome.
According to him, “We have to close ranks. It is something that is baffling some of us but any challenge is not insurmountable; it will be surmounted by the grace of God and we will find a solution to that and that is why there is a problem.
“It is only PDP with the experience of governance that is being challenged. And you will notice that this is a creation of the other side (APC).
“They want us to be in disarray; it (the crisis) is the creation of the APC. They always want to have moles within us; they want to have the knowledge of what is happening within us
“And you can see that even Wike who is in the APC and in the PDP is performing very well. They (APC) don’t have people who can perform like our members and that is why they chose to pick him and give him a state-like structure to run, and to us, it is a commendation.”
However, Mohammed assured that efforts are underway to take decisive action to unify the party, stating, “We cannot compromise the peace and unity of our great party.”
