Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto state has appealed to politicians in the state to show ‘maturity’ during the campaigns for the 2023 general elections.
Tambuwal, who made the appeal in an interactive session with journalists in Sokoto, said doing so would foster unity and a peaceful electioneering process.
The People’s Democratic Party’s (PDP) Internal Crisis
For some time now, the PDP has been dealing with an internal crisis over party leadership, leading to a faction christened the “G-5 Governors”.
Speaking on the matter, Governor Tambuwal said:
“The PDP is a law-abiding party and it would explore lawful avenues to bring any of its erring members to book.
“The five good colleagues that are in G5- you know, I have always been saying this: we engage in political engineering and political negotiations. It is not a war of attrition.
“I always submit that in this our business, whatever it is that you are doing, even if you try to hide it, it will come out.
“You cannot plan and execute a political project in your own bedroom.
“So, when my colleagues resolve on what to do, I think it is then that the party will now respond on whatever position they have taken.”
