The Unedited:
The attention of key stakeholders of the PDP in the Northern state is drawn to reports in the media that some Northern Elders have shortlisted two of our prominent and deserving aspirants as consensus PDP presidential candidates.
Having widely consulted party leaders across the 19 states and FCT, it is hereby stated to our teeming party members and the general public that what is reported in the media is only the personal opinion of those who issued the statement and not the position of the PDP members in the North.
Discussion are ongoing with ALL the aspirants in our party with a view to having a National consensus if possible or atleast working towards having a smooth acrimony free National Convention.
The position of the Northern Elders is not only injurious to the North but equally injurious to the Northern aspirants.
