Emerging report on Wednesday, indicates that the South-West Apex Political group, Afenifere, has officially endorsed the aggrieved G-5 Governors of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, demanding for fairness, justice and equity at the National Leadership level of the party, ahead of the 2023 general elections, Page
Speaking on the position of the G-5 Governors of the PDP, Afenifere blamed the crisis on the violation of the PDP constitution and the recommendations of the 2014 National Conference on the rotation of power between the Northern and Southern regions of the country.
The Secretary-General of Afenifere, Chief Sola Ebiseeni, who spoke in a statement, said that Afenifere is totally behind the G-5 PDP Governors.
He stated that Afenifere is supporting the Governors, because it believes that the power should come to the South, after a Northerner, President Muhammadu Buhari, has completed his 8-year tenure in Office.
Ebiseeni further stated that the constitution of the PDP was violated with the choice of Atiku as the party’s 2023 Presidential Candidate.
According to him: “It is difficult for members of Afenifere in good conscience and the peace of our nation to support the ill-advised choice of the PDP Presidential Candidate, on account of his region of origin.”
