As Tambuwal Lost Presidency, I’m Reviewing My Membership Of PDP – Gov Fayose

Governor Ayo Fayose has said that he is considering his membership of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) after his favourite aspirant, Aminu Tambuwal had lost in the party’s presidential primary in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital at the weekend.

In a statement today, Tuesday, Governor Fayose said that he supported his Rivers counterpart, Nyesom Wike, to ensure the emergence of Tambuwal but that since Tambuwal, who is currently the Sokoto State Governor, lost the election to Atiku Abubakar, who polled 1,532 votes as against Tambuwal’s 693 votes, he is reconsidering his membership of the PDP.

“We have no regret aligning with Governor Wike to support Governor Tambuwal for the presidential ticket. We have no apologies either.

“We kept the party alive and strong when most men became ladies. We never compromised. If any group feels it can do it alone, we will see how far they can go

“I may renounce my membership of the party, if the need arises

“In the main time, myself and others will continue with our consultations while watching the turn of events.

“We cannot but appreciate leaders that have intervened so far, but this release became necessary to avoid fresh crisis or misrepresentation.”
