Amidst the heated tussle for delegates, Atiku turns down circulated information that claims that 12 governors have endorsed Buhari. He said on his facebook post that the story is being cooked up by opposing parties in order to cause disharmony among APC presidential aspirants.
Following the denial of nomination forms to some PDP presidential aspirants, ruling party, People’s Democratic Party, PDP, in a two-paragraph statement by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, urged all those who have paid for the Expression of Interest and nomination forms to visit the party’s National Secretariat to pick their forms.
Metuh, against his earlier stand said that sale of forms for aspirants closes on Thursday this week. He said, “The Peoples Democratic Party wishes to inform all aspirants to all positions for the 2015 general elections that the deadline for the purchase and collection of all nomination forms has been extended to Thursday, 6th November 2014. All aspirants who paid for nomination forms, including the Presidential Form but yet to collect same, should come to the PDP National Secretariat, Wadata Plaza, Wuse Zone 5, Abuja with verifiable evidence of payment for purposes of collection of their forms.”
The party had also said after the endorsement through Chief Metuh that all law abiding members of the party must adhere strictly to the decision of PDP by not picking presidential nomination forms against the decision of the organs of the party.
