Indications have emerged that following some crises that came up after the primaries in some states,President Goodluck Jonathan has concluded plans to reach out to some former governors, leaders, elders and stakeholders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP who have been frustrated by serving governors that have taken over the structures of the party.
To achieve this, President Jonathan would be collaborating with PDP National Chairman Alhaji Adamu Muazu and the leadership of the party to ensure that they meet with these former governors, leaders, elders and stakeholders and resolve the problem especially ahead of 2015 general elections.
According to a source, the move is to allow the PDP go into the elections as a united family to confront the opposition, the All Progressives Congress, APC.
The arrangement as gathered would be to pacify some of these personalities who are aggrieved especially as they complained of being schemed out by the governors to put in place their own persons as against the wishes of the people.
Prior and after the primaries in the states where candidates emerged, chieftains of the party who have been disenchanted with the way and manner the governors have appropriated the party structures in state chapters of the party, have protested to the National Secretariat against the conduct of the primaries.
