Fani-Kayode said this in an interview with reporters in Abuja on Tuesday.
He explained that because of the enormous respect he had for President Goodluck Jonathan, he was restraining himself from exposing the shady deals allegedly committed by some members of the NWC.
The director alleged that NWC members engaged in a series of acts of sabotage to undermine the campaign council.
Attempts to get a reaction from the party's National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, were unsuccessful.
Calls to his mobile telephone indicated that he was unavailable while a response to a text message sent to him was still being awaited as of the time of filing this report.
When contacted, the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the party, Abdullahi Jalo, referred our correspondent to Metuh.
Fani-Kayode said, "We need a new leadership that is open, kind, fair-minded and accommodating and in order to achieve that, I must add my voice to that of a number of governors and other key stakeholders and leaders in our party, who have said the party's National Working Committee must go.
"Sadly the NWC has become a cog in the wheel of progress. They (members) have much to learn from what the leadership of the Labour Party and the Liberal Democratic Party did in the U.K. just a couple of weeks ago when they resigned a few hours after losing the election to the conservatives.
"They resigned with honour and no one had to ask them to go or call for their resignation. They did the right and proper thing because they are well educated people, who have honour. Sadly, the NWC members lack both education and honour; otherwise, they would have resigned by now."
He said he was adding his voice to that of Governors Aliyu Babaginda, Sule Lamido, Ayodele Fayose and that of the overwhelming majority of governors, party leaders and elders, who are calling on Mu'azu and others NWC members to resign "if the PDP is serious about forging party unity, restoring its fortunes, redeeming itself and winning any election in 2019."
According to him, he has decided to keep the evidence of double dealing on the part of two prominent members of the NWC to himself in order not to rock the boat.

Shameless FFK, go ahead and expose whatever you know about your party chairman, you are a gifted liar about people. You, yourself are the worst kind of person any organization should have, you are one of the major reasons for the failure of your party and here you come blaming another.
ReplyDeleteFFK you are a coward! somebody destroyed your party and you are hiding the person. That is what killed PDP- lack of transparency and lack of discipline. Besides, you are to be sacked too for misleading GEJ before and during the campaign. For not telling him the truth because of your deep respect for him and now you are repeating it after the election. When will you stop to mislead this man because of this so called respect for him. Is this the way to respect person?
