PDP Governors Give Conditions For Backing GEJ's 2015 Ambition...What's Your Take?

 The Nation Writes that Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors have given three conditions to back President Goodluck Jonathan’s yet-unannounced re-election bid…..very funny right?

The whispered conditions are:

•allowing outgoing governors to choose their successors;

•automatic second term tickets for those running first term in office; and

•automatic senatorial seats for governors aspiring to be in the Senate.

Although Jonathan is set to emerge the sole presidential candidate of the PDP, all is not well within the party on how to meet the demands of the governors.

Some of the governors are threatening protest votes in their states if they are not allowed to have their way.

PDP National Chairman Adamu Muazu is said to be battling to manage the situation.

Muazu, who is opposed to automatic tickets, has to devise means of accommodating the agitation of the governors.

Nigeria has 36 states and PDP has 18 governors out of the 36.

Some of the governors believed to have senatorial ambition in 2015 or being prevailed upon to go to the upper chamber are

 Liyel Imoke of Cross River; 

Theodore Orji (Abia); 

Godswill Akpabio (Akwa Ibom) ; 

Sullivan Chime (Enugu); 

Martins Elechi (Ebonyi); 

Gabriel Suswam (Benue); 

Emmanuel Uduaghan (Delta);

 Babangida Aliyu(Niger); 

Ibrahim Shema (Katsina); 

Saidu Dakingari (Kebbi); 

Jonah Jang(Plateau);

 Isa Yuguda(Bauchi)

The governors seeking second term are

 Henry Seriake Dickson(Bayelsa); 

Ramalan Yero(Kaduna); 

Ibrahim Dankwabo (Gombe); 

Idris Wada( Kogi)- 

; Acting Governor Garba Umar ( Taraba);

There has been disquiet in the party on the demands of the governors.

what do you think about these demands?

From the list you have seen above…….should these conditions be met by Mr President.

We all know he is going for another term even though he has not announced his ambition….yet.
