PDP BoT Chairman, Senator Jibrin
The Chairman, Board of Trustees (BoT) of Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), Senator Walid Jibrin, has raised alarm over threats to his life
and has petitioned the Director-General of the Department of State Services
(DSS) and Inspector-General of Police (IGP), following his comments that the
party will not zone its presidential ticket come 2023.
Sen. Jibrin recently stated that the party will give room
for interested aspirants from all parts of the country to contest for the
presidential primaries for the 2023 elections, which elicited various reaction
including threats of the demonstration against him and harassment.
According to him, “I have received calls from some people
threatening my life over my coming out not to mention that the presidency of
this country be zoned to the North-East.
“They were saying that I am a traitor, that I should have
come out to say that it is only Atiku Abubakar, that because I said that Atiku
was already overthrown by the Supreme Court. They said for that, I should say
Atiku is the man.” (Independent)
