Amid the reports that the PDP chairman may be moonlighting for the
opposition, speculations are rife as to the reason for this, if there is
truth in this suspicion. An associate of the chairman, Adamu Mu’azu,
while speaking confidentially to The Cable, said that the PDP chairman
is ‘angry’ at the way the President’s wife has been attacking the North
in her campaign speeches.
In fact, Mu'azu is not pleased at all with Patience Jonathan's
‘disrespectful remarks’against Buhari (whom, it will be recalled, she
called ‘braindead.’)
Meanwhile, a source in the Buhari camp further told The Cable that
“there has been 'indirect contact' from Mu’azu whom he said is under
“tremendous pressure” from his family back home not to throw his body on
the line for Goodluck Jonathan.
Furthermore, the source added, ‘political currents in Bauchi’ have made
Mu’azu more inclined to having General Buhari as the next president as
against Jonathan.
