Atiku Under Pressure To Dump APC For PDP
With a few weeks to the presidential elections, some leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are reportedly putting pressure on former vice president Atiku Abubakar to dump the All Progressives Congress (APC) and support President Goodluck Jonathan’s re-election bid.
Reports have it that he is also under pressure from his supporters in the APC, who felt shortchanged after he failed to realise his ambition of emerging as the APC presidential candidate.
Those who are making moves to woo Atiku are of the belief that he is nursing a grudge against leaders of the party as he has not been participating actively in the campaigns of the APC, and so might accept a return to the PDP.
Though the former vice president has not yet committed to those mounting pressure on him, he is said to have not opposed the planned defection of his supporters, who feel cheated in the APC.
Meanwhile, the leadership of the APC are reportedly worried over Atiku’s lack of involvement in Buhari’s campaign, and recently sent the director general of Muhammadu Buhari’s presidential campaign organisation and governor of Rivers state, Rotimi Amaechi, to seek a rapprochement.

We Are For Peace, No War — Ex-Niger Delta Militants
Former Niger Delta militants under the groups called
the Niger Delta Coalition and Delta Coalition for Change yesterday said
that the region will not head into violence if President Goodluck
Jonathan loses the March 28 election.
The ex-militants revealed that no matter who wins the polls, they would give their full support to the winner.
The ex-fighters had in January sworn to violence if Jonathan, who hails from the region, fails to win his re-election bid.
Some
of the Niger Delta militants had threatened war after a meeting with
the special assistant to the president on Niger Delta affairs, Kingsley
Kuku, including Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, Government Ekpemupolo (aka
Tompolo), Victor Ben Ebikabowei (aka Boy Loaf), Eris Paul (aka General
Ogunboss) and Pastor Reuben.
“This action is calling the Niger Delta youth to war,” Dokubo-Asari had said at a press conference after the meeting.
