PDP Chieftain rejects converting party officials to caretaker committees in Kaduna
A Chieftain of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, in Kaduna state, Dr John Danfulani, has condemned in strong terms the decision of the party to convert existing party officials in the state to caretaker committees of the party.
“One must not be a serious student of Professor Laurence T.Tribes of Harvard Law School or admirer of Justice Chukwudifu Oputa to know that; it’s outrightly illegal and morally bankrupt to be a member of a caretaker committee and be a contestant simultaneously. This will not stand the rigour of legal challenges in the hallowed chambers. It can’t, trust me, it can’t.”
“Wadata’s dated 24th April 2020 gave the go order to swear-in ward executive on Thursday 30th April 2020–what will happen to NCDC guidelines of social distancing and Kaduna state government Quarantine Act illegalising large gatherings? Must we project our inherent in-house lawlessness and corrosive impunity to the wider society? If KDSG laws close-on, hope we will not cry of blue murder, oppression, and suppression of opposition.
He said the Kaduna State Public Relations Officer of the PDP conveyed the decision of Wadata Plaza of converting existing executives from ward to state to caretaker committee, at 9:52am of 28th April 2020, adding that the decision was transmitted via a letter dated 24th April 2020.
