The former Katsina State governor, Ibrahim Shehu Shema, has threatened to quit the People’s Democratic (PDP) within 48 hours if the National Working Committee (NWC) fails to reserve the suspension placed on him.
Recall that the PDP had suspended Fayose, Shema, and Anyim among Others over alleged anti-party activities.
In a letter dated March 24, 2023, and addressed to the National Chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu, Shema also called for the disbandment of what he called the “illegal caretaker committee” of the PDP in Katsina state.
He stated that failure by the NWC to rescind its decisions on the two issues, the letter should serve as his formal and official withdrawal of membership from the PDP effective from Saturday, March 25, 2023.
Part of the letter read: “Rescind the National Working Committee (NWC) decision of my suspension as a member of our party within the next Forty-Eight (48) hours.
“I cannot, therefore, continue to remain in the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) under Dr. Iyorchia Ayu’s law who is duty bound to preserve, protect and defend our constitution within his limited powers.
“It is in the height of these developments that I make the following appeals: Rescind the National Working Committee (NWC) decision of unlawful dissolution of Katsina State duly elected Executive Committee and allow them to complete their tenure and disband the purported caretaker committee similar to which so many court decisions in the land have illegalized.
“Take notice that failure to effect these two changes above within Forty-Eight (48) hours, this letter serves as the formal and official withdrawal of my membership from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) effective from Saturday 25 March 2023.”
