This they said was coming on the heels of Obi’s failure to recognise the important role of the 36 state chapters leadership but would rather choose to work with cronies and support groups.
The Chairman, LP, Gombe State and Coordinating Chairman for 36 states of the Federation, Alhaji Sani Abdulsalam, spoke on behalf of others, such as: Chairman Yobe State, Alhaji Ibrahim Mohammad Bukar; and the National Vice Chairman, North East, Alhaji Mohammed Alkaji, during a press briefing, in Abuja.
