A Chieftain of  PDP, High Chief Raymond Dokpesi on Tuesday 30,August, opened up on why the party is in the current crisis before it.

Dokpesi accused the former President, Goodluck Jonathan of jettisoning the power rotational arrangement in place hence the current crisis befalling the party.

The High Chief says in 2015 he advised former President Jonathan to break and allow for a candidate from the North to do their eight years tenure started by late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua but he acted otherwise.

He said this in Kano during an interview with news paper-men after receiving the two term governor, Senator Ibrahim Shekarau back into the PDP party.

For him, “in 2015 when President Goodluck Jonathan was angling to contest elections, I wrote to him and asked him not to do so, to either go on vacation with ahead from where YarAdua’s tenure stop or join the incoming government, so that he can come back and complete his full eight years.

“But he was advised otherwise and adhered to that and that is what led to the crises we have today and what also allowed the North to continue producing the President till 2027.
