The calls for the resignation of the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu have been intensified. Governor Babangida Aliyu of Niger on Saturday joined the fray asking leaders of PDP to emulate the British political leaders, who resigned after leading their party to defeat in Thursday’s election.
Aliyu gave the advice in Dutse at the inauguration of a township road named after the then “G7 Governors” by Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa.
Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose had earlier called for the resignation of Mu’azu. He also urged Mu’azu to emulate Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg of Labour Party and Liberal Democrats in the United Kingdom resigned after their party lost at the polls.
“It is unfortunate that people had to be called to resign.
“The leaders are supposed to voluntarily resign their positions for the loss at the just concluded general elections.
“It is unfair that they are threatening to form a factional PDP because they were asked to resign,” Aliyu said.
