insinuations in some quarters that some President aspirants of the worked against the victory of Atiku Abubakar in the February 23 election.Sowunmi who stated this in a chat with selected newsmen in Abuja, said on the contrary, the 11 others who lost out to Atiku at the Port Harcourt Presidential primaries went the whole hog to return Atiku elected, adding that the Wazirin Adamawa indeed won the election.
He said: “After the convention in Port Harcourt, you would have noticed that all of them stayed behind. None of them left the party and as much as they could, they played one role or the other. Continuing, Sowunmi added that political patronage in the country often comes with some challenges, saying, “Politics in Nigeria carries with it one burden which is that everybody wants patronage and that patronage they want usually comes from the people that are in government, the Presidency and by extension the governors are the one that will dispense distil those patronages.
While counseling PDP stalwarts to keep faith with the party “at this difficult time, ” Sowunmi said the lamentation of some who left PDP for the ruling party should offer some valuable lessons to those capable of seeing beyond the gains of today.“I should just say that they should take a look at the ones that went on that Israeli journey to APC in the beginning and how they have been treated.
