You are ungrateful, Jang whips the members of PAM

Former Plateau State Governor Jonah Jang has described members of the Plateau Movement for Atiku (PAM) as ingrates, adding that they are resurrecting the same old rhetoric of reconciliation meetings.

PAM, which works for Atiku Abubakar's presidential bid in Plateau state, on Tuesday voted a vote of no confidence in G-5 governors Jang for backing calls for the resignation of the National President of the Peoples' Democratic Party (PDP). , Senator Iyorchia Ayu.

Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike leads the Governors of the G-5, also known as the Integrity Group. Speaking to reporters yesterday at the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) press centre, Jos, PAM Spokesperson and former Plateau Assembly Speaker, Istifanus Nwansat said: “ If Ayu resigns, what happens to the National Vice President (North)? , who is required by the PDP constitution to assume leadership? This leaves room for possible protracted litigation."

According to Nwansat, the change of the party's national chairmanship at this time will affect other positions, as well as cause wide consultations and consensus, for which time is not available.

However, Jang said yesterday that PAM had not stated that whenever Atiku emissaries met with members of the integrity group, the conclusion had always been that they would report the position of the governor of G- 5 to their manager and would return.

"But how many of these emissaries actually returned after reporting to their principal? None.

"On the resignation of the BoT chairman to make way for a Southern chairman, one would imagine it's like going to the doctor with a complaint of stomach pain and having surgery performed on head as a cure. You don't treat the symptoms by leaving Cancer. There was never a request for the resignation of the Chairman of the Board of Directors (BoT),” he added. p>

Jang's media consultant, Clinton Garuba, said yesterday that it was shocking for the PDP leaders to use the Labor Party (LP) as a yardstick.

Garuba said: "In case they forgot, the PDP is a party that has come of age, has a structure and a constitution that has been tested over the years. Even though LP is committed in what is not fair, justice and fairness will be fairness and fairness everywhere and at all times It must be clear that the request for the resignation of the party president arose from the need for a distribution equitable elective mandates in the party. One wonders how difficult it is to understand this position.

“However, it will come down to crying louder than the mourners since Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom, who should be at the forefront of defending the President, is the leader of those demanding his resignation.”

He said the Integrity Group, of which Jang is a member, has repeatedly said that its doors are open to reconciliation because the members of the group are PDP members through and through.

For him, it is Integrity Group's desire that Atiku not only contest the election but win, which can only be achieved in a fair way, not with the prevailing atmosphere of imbalance.
