He said this Tuesday night at a meeting with eight national chairmanship aspirants at the party’s secretariat in Abuja.
“The convention agreed to zone the national chairmanship to the South while its ticket in the 2019 presidential election was zoned to the north. We cannot go beyond that and decide which part of the north or south should produce what.”
“Some people think that I, as chairman of the caretaker committee, should assume the power that we don’t have.
“We have no power beyond the convention and the party’s constitution. I want to remind all of us that the only thing our convention did was to zone two positions. The caretaker committee cannot go beyond that.
He said that the meeting was aimed at giving every aspirant the opportunity to state his vision and plans for the party if elected its national chairman.
He said: “We decided that we should meet, discuss and hear from you, as we prepare for the convention.”
In attendance were: Senator Rasheed Ladoja, former Oyo State Governor; Prof. Tunde Adeniran, former Education Minister; Otunba Gbenga Daniel, former Ogun State governor; and Chief Raymond Dokpesi, founder, Daar Communications.
