Ahmed Gulak, former Senior Special Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan on Political Affairs has blamed the National chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Adamu Mu'azu for the president's defeat during the just concluded Presidential election.
Speaking during an interview session with PUNCH, Gulak responded to claims by Mu'azu that the APC was trying to plant moles within the PDP. Gulak said, ''He should tell us who the moles are, because there are a lot of people who believe that he is the number one mole planted in the PDP to destroy it. If the belief of the majority of the members of the PDP is anything to go by, you could say that the party chairman was the number one culprit for the dismal outing of the PDP. There is no party chairman of the PDP since 1998 that has led the party to such a disastrous outing. As a result, the national chairman should consider himself one of those that have to give way for the new party to come up. In fact, he doesn’t need to be told to turn in his resignation''.
''I would say he did not have the party’s interest at heart from the time the party started campaigns. His heart was not with Mr. President, because when the President was inaugurating his campaign council, it was the national chairman who came out publicly to say there were a lot of injustices in the party. And the question was: Who caused these injustices?
''He was the national chairman; he had the authority to submit names to the Independent National Electoral Commission for elections and he short-changed a lot of people. Therefore, I will align with those calling for his resignation as a result of this disastrous outing. Even in his home state, Bauchi, he could not muster 25 per cent (of votes) for the party. Therefore, he doesn’t need to be told that his time is up or that the PDP does not need him any longer if we have to rebuild the party''.
