If I Leave PDP, Jonathan Will Become Vulnerable ––Says Tukur


The battle for survival by the National Chairman of the ruling Peoples
Democratic Party, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, is getting serious as more
PDP governors have vowed that he either step down or they will be
left with no choice but to dump the party and join their colleagues in
APC.
But Tukur is ready to fight to the end and he his describing himself as
the best man to be there in the interest of President Goodluck
Jonathan's 2015 ambition,claiming that those calling for his removal
are plotting to make President Jonathan vulnerable to be defeated in
2015.
The PDP chairman wondered whether his "loyalty" to Jonathan is now
a crime. Tukur's removal is considered one of the major conditions
needed to restore peace to the troubled party.
As part of their agitation for his removal, the governors met in Abuja,
on Friday night, where they resolved that Tukur should resign in order
to stem the tide of defections from the party.
The party has lost five of its governors to the major opposition party,
the APC, a situation which is seen by top political analysts as a bad
omen for the ruling party which is desirous of retaining power in
2015.
