Ayu Joined Forces With Tambuwal To Shortchange Wike At PDP Primary – Jonah Jang

Ex-Governor of Plateau State, Jonah Jang, has come out to accuse the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Iyorchia Ayu of helping Atiku Abubakar emerge as the party’s presidential candidate for the 2023 election at the expense of his opponents including Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State during the primary election.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Ayu can be likened to a referee who helped one of the sides to score a goal, and then blew the whistle that a goal had been scored.

Jonah added that Ayu had a private arrangement with the Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal to shortchange Governor Nyesom Wike and other aspirants at the party presidential primary.

His words, “For the National Chairman, Ayu, to go and embrace Aminu Tambuwal, calling him the hero of the convention which means there was a private arrangement that was done with Tambuwal to shortchange other contestants, including Governor Nyesom Wike.”

“Here was a referee who now helped one of the sides to score a goal and then blew a whistle that a goal had been scored. This is not what we formed the PDP to do for Nigerians and therefore we unequivocally ask that Ayu has to step down.”
