The leadership of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has revealed it position on the crisis rocking the opposition PDP in Plateau state, stating that the PDP crisis is a blessing in disguise.
A PDP group known as Plateau for Atiku Movement (PAM), on Tuesday, November 22, held a press conference and passed a vote of no confidence on former governor Jonah David Jang, alleged to be loyal to Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, and the G5 governors.
The group during Tuesday’s conference, chaired by Istifanus Mwansat, said they were disappointed with how he (Jang) turned his back on the party’s presidential candidate because of Wike despite being a strong member and leader of the party in the state.
However, the APC in the state through its publicity secretary, Sylvanus Namang, said the crisis was a good development for them, explaining that the disagreement among the PDP members would further disunite the party.
“This is a self-inflicted crisis. I cannot see how they would put their house in other. Jang is the owner of the PDP because the structure is fully controlled by him. So, for them to pass a vote of no confidence on him will further worsen the crisis. I wouldn’t say we are happy because we want strong competition which is lacking. But in a way, we are happy because we are going to have a landslide victory, ” Namang said.
