Tension is mounting within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as former Jigawa State governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has accused the party’s leadership of subverting internal democracy after he was denied access to purchase the nomination form to contest for the position of National Chairman.
Lamido, a founding member of the PDP and one of its vocal elder statesmen, arrived at the party’s national secretariat, Wadata Plaza, Abuja, on Monday morning, only to be turned back by officials who allegedly informed him that the forms were “no longer available.”
