Aminu Tambuwal, the governor of Sokoto State, has said that Uche Secondus, the suspended National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, must resign.

Secondus must resign in accordance with a court order, according to Tambuwal.

The chairman of the PDP Governors Forum spoke to reporters after the forum’s emergency meeting in Abuja yesterday.

Tambuwal also stated that the Forum is ready to support the party’s acting National Chairman, Yemi Akinwonmi.

“We are a law-abiding political party dedicated to the rule of law. So when a Port Harcourt High Court barred Secondus from claiming to be the party’s national chairman, we decided that was the way to go. That court order must be followed.

“We had Akinwonmi preside over the National Working Committee meeting today, and he came to brief us on their decision, which is in line with the previous meeting of the Governors Forum and the meeting of stakeholders, that there should be a NEC meeting on Saturday, where we will be discussing issues about the national convention, which is still scheduled for October by the grace of God.

“The road may be bumpy, but the most important thing is that we remain united, and that is what we assure our members and throngs of supporters across the country.

“We are Nigeria’s hope and the hope of the future, and we have earned Nigerians’ confidence and trust, and we will not betray it,” he said.

Secondus had been ordered to vacate his position as PDP National Chairman by a Rivers State High Court.

Secondus was reinstated to his office yesterday by Justice Nusirat. I. Umar, a vacation Judge of the Kebbi State High Court.

Meanwhile, Yemi Akinwonmi, the opposition party’s authentic National Chairman, has declared himself.

Akinwonmi’s appointment as acting National Chairman was also confirmed by the PDP.
