The Peoples Democratic Party has announced the suspension of Bamanga Tukur as its Chairman.
The reason why the party suspended Tukur was because he took legal action to reclaim his position after his resignation in January.
Tukur claimed that he was forced to resign and is asking the courts to restore him to his rightful position and sack the newly installed chairman, Adam Mu’azu.
PDP blamed Tukur for not exploring all the party’s option for seeking redress before taking the party to court.
The National Legal Adviser of the PDP, Victor Kwon released Tukur’s suspension statements which reads:
The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic, PDP, at its 395th meeting held yesterday, December 3, 2014 reviewed recent national developments as they affect the party.
Among others, the NWC deliberated on the court case instituted against the National Chairman of the Party, Adamu Mu’azu, by the former National Chairman, Bamanga Tukur.
The NWC reasoned that for instituting a claim and counter claim in suit FHC/ABJ /821/2014; Gurin vs PDP & 3 others without first exploring and exhausting the party’s internal mechanism of redress and for attempting to stop the forthcoming National Convention to nominate the party’s presidential candidate as well as regularize the position of the National Chairman and other members of the National Working Committee is unacceptable.
The NWC hereby suspends Dr. Bamanga Tukur and Aliyu Abuba Gurin for one month and refers them to the National Disciplinary Committee for infringing on section 58(1)(a)( b)( h)( l) of the PDP Constitution 2012( as amended).
