PDP in bad shape.
LAWANI GIVE PDP BENUE STATE ULTIMATUM TO VACATE HIS PREMISES!!
The former Deputy Governor of Benue State Chief Stephen Lawani who out of his fatherly love gave the party his buliding to be used when he was sworn in as the Deputy Governor as the party secretariat has given PDP Benue State the grace of few months to vacate his premises!!
Despite the fact that Chief Lawani decamped to the ruliing Party about five months ago, he still allowed them to be using it but as it is now he has no option than to let them go!!
It is so unfortunate and highly regretable that after 16yrs in power, the PDP in Benue State have no single structure to call its party Secretariat, but they were busy building companies, hotels, filling stations to mention but a few within the state, outside the state and even in abroad without even a thatch house to call its own, even when they were opportuned, little part of the stolen Benue #107B would have even given them a better structure!!
Instead of thinking on how to put the house they scattered in order, they were busy chanting "Change The Change" as their new slogan and I asked what happened to "The Power To The People"?.
Have they also forgotten that power was not forcefully taken from them but through a free and fair election??
No structure, No Slogan, No State Chairman, No National Chairman!!

Idomapilot gist of the week....
Last week Gej said MEND was after his life, yesterday Mend accused Gej with details of how NDA was formed.
Its not new really, PMB was accused of sponsoring Boko Haram, but the difference is that GEJ is being accused by his own people
No Northerner accused PMB of Boko Haram
Personally i dont think GEJ founded NDA he is too weak for that, but he could be financing, so they say ooo, but he doesnt look like someone who can think of something like this he could only be carried along.
If i hear say Wike na e start NDA i go hear but definitely not the ineffectual past leader, make MEND talk something else.
