A chieftain of the Peoples' Democratic Party (PDP) in Kano, Alhaji Gambo Dan-Pass, has called for continuous prayers for peace and unity in the country.
Dan-pass, who is the Dansaran Kano, made the call in Kano on Saturday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
He said that there was need for Nigerians to continue to pray to God for the nation to overcome its current political and socio-economic challenges.
Dan-Pass, who was reacting to the PDP crisis, said that the party members in the state would continue to support Gov. Rabi’u Kwankwaso.
He said that members of the party would also remain steadfast with all those who broke away from the old PDP in order to ensure the entrenchment of democracy in the country.
He attributed the current crisis within the ruling party to what he described as lack of good leadership and internal democracy.
"Crisis in any political party is a normal phenomenon, but if there is good leadership, the crisis will be very minimal.
"Unless and until there is good leadership, the party will continue to be in crisis and this is what I have been saying since the crisis erupted,’’ he said.
According to him, the recent appointment of caretaker committee in the state was uncalled for because it was against the constitution of the party.
"The recent appointment of caretaker committee in Kano is uncalled for because the tenure of the former executive expired in August and election should have been held last week, but we don’t know why it was not conducted,’’ he said.
The traditional title holder, however, urged the people of the state to continue to support Kwankwaso in his efforts to transform the state in all fields of human endeavour.
``People should continue to support Gov. Kwankwaso to enable him continue with the good works he is doing in the state,’’ he said.
