Factional groups of the Buhari
Campaign Organisation (BCO) attacked each other on Wednesday in a bid to gain
control of the Katampe headquarters of the organisation in Abuja.
Although the face off had been
going on for months, it climaxed yesterday when the warring factions clashed
over which one had the power to celebrate the return of President Muhammadu
Buhari from medical vacation abroad.
One of the groups was led by
Alhaji Danladi Pasalli, while the other by Alhaji Aminu Isa Bayero.
They had converged at the
secretariat for a press conference to speak on Buhari’s return and nationwide
broadcast.
The Pasalli faction which arrived
earlier at the venue, took control of the office and locked out the other group
led by Bayero.
Bayero and his group invited the
police and officials of the Department of State Services (DSS) to retake the
office for their meeting, while the Bayero group also invited the police to the
venue to ensured that only members loyal to them had access into the building.
Despite the arrival of security
agents, Bayero and his national secretary, Nnenna Lancaster Okoro and their
supporters remained locked out.
To forestall further trouble, the
Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in charge of Katampe, Tino Dangana. appealed to
the two groups to submit five names each to deliberate and resolve the crisis.
The crisis in the organisation
dates back to February when the Acting National Coordinator, Alhaji Aminu Isa
Bayero, was suspended by the Board of Trustees (BoT) Chairman, Alhaji Kabiru
N’Kaura, and replaced with Alhaji Danladi Passalli.

The truth is gradually coming out, your interest is not in supporting Buhari but in what you all stand to gain, if not tell me why the fight... its categorically obvious that you were paid for the pro Buhari campaigns. ANIMALS
