<\/p>\nThe News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), reports that Sango\u2019s resignation was announced by retired Lt.-Gen. Jeremiah Useni, the leader of the party in the state.<\/p>\n
Useni, also PDP governorship candidate in the 2019 general election in the state, disclosed this at a stakeholders\u2019 meeting in Jos on Friday.<\/p>\n
\u201cSango is no more our state chairman as directed by the National Secretariat but now a member of PDP Board of Trustees (BOT).<\/p>\n
\u201cMr Amos Gombi, his deputy, is now the acting chairman of PDP in the state. This was done to settle whatever crisis we were having.<\/p>\n
\u201cLeft for us the leaders of the party in the state, there is nothing like PDP I and PDP II because we are one big family undivided.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe allegation that Sango collected money from the headquarters for 2019 general elections was not true because three of us signed for whatever stipends given to us by the National Secretariat.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, the insinuations raised against him (Sango) were but false and a disservice to him,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
Useni, who was flanked by his running mate, Mr James Dalok, described PDP as a big family devoid of any form of division and ready to reclaim its stolen mandate at the Court of Appeal.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur appeal is coming up on Nov. 22, with great and strong belief that we shall emerge victorious.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut no matter the outcome of the appeal, we shall end up at the Supreme Court because I will never give up the fight.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am a dogged fighter, and never give up. That\u2019s why I attended all the sittings at the Election Petition Tribunal to the end.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat I want from you people is your continuous prayers for God to help us reclaim our stolen mandate,\u201d Useni said.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
