Former Benue State governor Gabriel Suswam blamed state leaders for destroying the Peoples Democratic Party. He appeared Wednesday on Channels Television to discuss problems inside the political organization. Suswam said governors share responsibility for creating chaos within party ranks. The politician accused party leaders of lacking clear direction and purpose. He warned these issues could damage the party beyond repair.
Confusion continues over who serves as the party national secretary position. Acting party chairman Umar Damagum recently told Samuel Anyanwu to return to work as secretary. Damagum made this announcement after visiting election officials with other party members. Different people have claimed the same job title in recent weeks. Party officials sent multiple letters to election commissioners about the secretary role.
Suswam criticized party leadership for allowing the secretary dispute to continue. He said the confusion makes the party look weak and disorganized. The former governor believes party leaders intentionally created these problems. Multiple candidates could confuse voters about who represents the party. Poor leadership decisions may prevent the party from running candidates in some elections.
The political crisis could affect upcoming elections in Ekiti state. Party infighting might leave voters without a clear choice. Suswam suspects party governors deliberately want to weaken the organization. He thinks these leaders work against party interests for personal gain. The ongoing disputes threaten the party future in national politics.
