Youth and student activists from Sokoto State defended a senior opposition figure against removal actions they claim originated from illegitimate party processes. The coalition representing Peoples Democratic Party supporters characterized efforts to oust National Organizing Secretary Umar Bature as constitutionally invalid and politically baseless, with chairman Bala Bello and secretary Nasiru Yakubu dismissing allegations of disloyalty against the former legislator.
The stakeholder group rejected penalties imposed by a breakaway faction that targeted Bature alongside other prominent members for supposed misconduct. Forum representatives portrayed the administrator as a stabilizing force during internal conflicts, asserting his membership status remains legally intact despite expulsion announcements linked to unrecognized organizational elements within the fractured political movement.
