The National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives
Congress, Felix Morka, has said the former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar
created the crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Morka said Atiku caused the PDP crisis by running for the
last presidential election and contravening the party’s constitution.
In an interview with TVC, Morka said Atiku contravened the
zoning arrangement which favoured the South.
PDP is currently experiencing leadership crisis which
started during the build-up to the 2023 presidential election.
A few days ago, Atiku’s running mate in 2023, Ifeanyi Okowa
and Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State defected to the APC.
There are reports that two more state governors and 40
lawmakers of the PDP are planning to defect from the PDP.
However, Morka said: “The problem in the PDP was Atiku’s
obdurate refusal to abide by the convention of his own party and its
constitution.
“He had no business running for that election when, under
their constitution, a southern candidate was mandated as, you know, under the
rotational agreement to run.
“He was the one who created the problem. So it wasn’t his
nomination. He was, you know, at the root of the problem that the PDP is facing
today.”
He also said the APC is not responsible for strengthening the
opposition, even as he said the APC remains strong despite pressures from
within and outside the party.

"Atiku is the root of the PDP’s crisis, driven by dishonesty, greed, selfishness, unreliability, lack of focus, and utter disorganization. Imagine entrusting the leadership of the world’s most populous Black nation to such a character.
