The chairman of the PDP Governors Forum, Bala Mohammed, said the status quo remains for now.
Mohammed stated this while addressing newsmen before jetting out to Ondo for a “crucial assignment” on Tuesday, October 15.
As reported by Daily Trust, Mohammed was in the company of Damagum and other PDP stakeholders when he disclosed this.
The Bauchi state governor ordered Yayari Mohammed, who was named Damagum’s replacement during the split in the National Working Committee (NWC) to vacate the office.
Legit recalls that PDP governors concluded a crucial meeting on Monday without deciding on Damagum’s fate.
The meeting revealed a split among PDP governors, with some supporting Damagum’s continuation, while others argued for the chairmanship to return to the North Central zone.
The governors plan to reconvene for further discussions during their visit to Ondo State, with hopes of resolving the leadership crisis.
