About 12 governors, who are members of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party have dumped President Goodluck Jonathan due to obvious plots by the current leadership of the party to have him as their presidential candidate in the 2015 election.
Olufamous.com have it on good authority that the said governors, most of them from the North, are making contacts with their friends and some strong men in the newly formed political party, All Progressive Congress, with a view to join them.
The new party was formed by the merging of the Action Congress of Nigeria, All Nigeria Peoples Party, All Progressive Grand Alliance and Congress for Progressive Change.
It was gathered that some other minor political parties had also discussed with the newly former political party to further boost its strength.
According to Punch, sources close the PDP said the party was already fidgeting that some of its governors and lawmakers could leave the party.
A member of the National Working Committee of the PDP, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the leadership of the party and the Presidency were afraid that their governors could abandon the umbrella.
He said behind the show of ‘we don’t care’ by the party’s leadership, there was concealment of fear, as the party was afraid that the current crisis rocking the party could consume it and make it a minority party in the future.
He said, “The party’s leadership is afraid. I must tell you. We are not convenient at all because the formation of the party is coming at a time we are having problems in our party. “Don’t forget that the NWC is divided.

"The PDP governors are angry. We cannot hold National Executive Committee meeting. We are even finding it difficult to elect the chairman of our Board of Trustees. We are also having financial problems in the party as the governors have refused to fund us the way they used to do before the crisis started.
“So, if anyone is telling you that we are at peace and are not worried as a result of the formation of the party, such a person is being economical with the truth.”

All Nigerians should rally round the opposition so country can be like Ghana where no Political Party can take the people for granted any more.
