We are yet to find Obasanjo’s sucessor – PDP

The ruling Peoples Democratic Party says it is not in a rush to find a replacement for former President Olusegun Obasanjo, who resigned as its Chairman, Board of Trustees. The party made this known on Wednesday through its Secretary of the Board, Dr. Jibril Walid, at the party’s secretariat in Abuja that Obasanjo’s resignation letter was still with the National Chairman of the party, Dr. Bamanga Tukur. According to Walid, Tukur had yet to notify other members of the BoT, adding that it was after that had been done that the board would decide whether to accept it or not. He said, “We even spent one year to get a replacement for the former secretary when he resigned. Now, the members are to meet and elect their chairman. “Obasanjo’s resignation letter is still with the national chairman of the party. He has not informed us about it. When he brings the letter, the BoT will decide on it and when to meet and elect a new chairman. “That meeting will be called very soon. But I must say that we are not in a hurry to do that.”
