A fresh twist emerged to the card tearing saga of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, as the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Tuesday, February 24, 2015 revealed that the former president tore an expired party card.
This development was communicated through the party’s national secretary, Prof. Wale Oladipo, during the reception of some student union leaders under the auspices of Student Mobilisation Network Group, (SMNG).
Oladipo revealed that the card which was torn by the former Nigeria president was the one issued to him by the former national chairman, Abubakar Barage, contrarily to the belief that he tore the most recent one issued by the current party leadership, headed by Dr Adamu Mu’azu.
Following purported moves to discipline him over his attacks against their Presidential Candidate, Goodluck Jonathan, Obasanjo, had supervised the shredding of his PDP membership card while hosting some members of Ogun State PDP, at his Ota residence in the state.
But Oladipo said “… you will see that Baba did not tear our card. He asked somebody ostensibly to do the tearing and I am assuring you that the card that was torn was not the current PDP card.
“The current PDP card is signed by Mu’azu and Prof Wale Oladipo. So the card he tore was a Barage card, which we were going to destroy anyway. So I think Baba started it.
Additionally, the secretary lashed out on Gen.Muhammad Buhari(rtd), the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), opining that he might be disqualified from the contest.
