In a recent interview on TVC News, public affairs analyst Kunle Oladehinde spoke about what he believes was the beginning of the leadership tensions now facing the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), pointing to a pivotal moment at the party’s 2022 presidential primary.
In the interview, Oladehinde stated, “The problem started at the convention grounds when Tambuwal stepped down for Atiku then.” He was referring to the PDP presidential primary held on May 28, 2022, during which Sokoto State Governor Aminu Tambuwal withdrew from the race and threw his support behind former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, a move that reshaped the outcome of the contest.
According to Oladehinde, Tambuwal’s decision at the convention venue did more than influence the presidential ticket; it set the stage for long‑standing disagreements within the party’s ranks. See More/Details
