The North-East zone of the PDP rejects the President’s choice of national chairman.
President Goodluck Jonathan was served a huge dose of political humiliation today as governors from the North-East Political zone conspired to reject his anointed candidate for the national chairmanship of the governing Peoples Democratic Party.
At the PDP zonal congress in Bauchi, which ended a while ago, Mr. Jonathan’s candidate for the position, Bamanga Tukur was defeated by a far younger and less popular Musa Babayo, who was the immediate acting national secretary of the party.
Mr. Babayo scored 14 delegate votes to Mr. Tukur’s two.
