The Chairman, Board of Trustees, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Walid Jibrin has alleged threat to his life over his stance that the party would not zone its 2023 presidential ticket.
He said that he had petitioned security outfits, including the Department of State Security (DSS) and the Office of the Inspector General of Police (IGP), over the matter.
Jibrin had disclosed that the PDP would give room for contestants from all parts of the country to have a shot at the party’s 2023 presidential ticket by contesting in the presidential primaries.
His stance drew various reactions, including threat calls from some quarters, he said.
“I have received calls from some people threatening my life over my coming out not to mention that the presidency of this country be zoned to the Northeast. They were saying that I am a traitor, that I should have come out to say that it is only Atiku Abubakar, that because I said that Atiku was already overthrown by the Supreme Court. They said for that, I should say Atiku is the man,” the BoT chairman said.
