President Goodluck Jonathan is said to be in a dilemma on how to resolve
the crises rocking the PDP.
Investigations in Abuja on Sunday indicated that Jonathan was worried by
the crises but was unsure of the best way of finding permanent solutions to
them.
It was gathered that the President’s dilemma was compounded by the
letter written by Obasanjo to Tukur.
In the letter, Obasanjo informed Tukur of his intention to stay away
from PDP’s activities at all levels if a financier of the party in the
South-West, Alhaji Buruji Kasamu, was not removed.
Although the President was said to have commenced a subtle search for
Tukur’s replacement, the intervention of his wife, Patience, might play a
role in determining his fate.
Tukur was said to have asked Patience to intercede for him and prevail
on the President not to succumb to pressures to ease him out of office.
Apart from reaching out to the President’s wife ,Tukur was said to be
asking some PDP governors and presidential aides to save him.
However, a presidential source who spoke on condition of anonymity, that Jonathan had been convinced that Tukur’s
removal was the best option.
