A Nigerian woman activist, Aisha Yesufu has blamed the Presidential candidate of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar for the crisisi rocking the party because of his inability to manage it well.
Reacting to the turbulence in the PDP via a video on Twitter, Aisha Yesufu said that Atiku cannot be trusted to unify Nigeria because he can’t maintain peace within his party.
“Atiku should not have constituted the committee since he knew he wouldn’t follow its recommendation. He couldn’t even call Wike to inform him of his development. This has caused more problems in the party.
“This is telling you he is someone who can’t even manage his party, and here we are talking about him unifying Nigeria. How possible? If he has the required leadership skills, he should be able to deal with people in order to make them feel validated.”
The crisis began when Atiku fell out with Rivers state Governor, Nyesom Wike, over his decision to pick Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, as his running mate.
Wike and his supporters had demanded the resignation of the party’s chairman Iyorchia Ayu to bring peace back to the party even as Ayu made it clear that he would not resign.
