The chairman of the Board of Trustees of
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Walid Jibrin, has resigned from his
position.
He disclosed this at the 97th BoT meeting
of the party on Thursday in Abuja.
He said the decision was made to ensure the
party’s presidential candidate emerged victorious in the 2023 elections.
Jibrin said he was sure if he would be
considered for a bigger position if Atiku Abubakar wins.
He said, “I took this decision based on
what I said in the past. I said that all we want to make sure of is that Atiku
Abubakar becomes the President by all means, and that is why I sincerely
decided to step down from the BoT. I discussed this with the candidate and he
agreed with me. I am sure if the party wins, I will be given a bigger
position.”
