Coordinator of the PDP Governors Forum, Osaro Onaiwu, has asked a former political adviser to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Mr. Ahmed Gulak to adjust his position on the ongoing arms probe of Col. Sambo Dasuki and others by the federal government.
Reacting to the call by Gulak for the probe of Jonathan, Onaiwu said that as the buck stops at the former president’s table, the former political adviser should be held accountable whether he was aware or not.
In a statement, yesterday in Abuja, the Governors Forum’s coordinator expressed regrets that a man aspiring to lead the PDP could not offer anything tangible other than to encourage the apparent determination of the APC-led regime to decimate the PDP.
“We hope that the statement credited to Mr. Gulak is untrue, that he was misquoted. But if it is actually what he said, then it is regrettable.
This is a man that pretended that he was ready to die if Jonathan did not contest the 2015 presidential election having nothing positive to contribute on the attack by the APC on the former President and PDP. One would have expected that Gulak will call for an inclusive, unbiased investigation of the purported arms deal rather than this mercenary statement by him.
“It is becoming increasingly clear that his court case against the PDP national executive is the handiwork of fifth columnist out to destroy the PDP, but I am confident that those behind him will fail. Come to think of it, Gulak is yet to shake off the bitterness of his sack by President Jonathan in 2014 given his overreaching himself just as he is doing now,” the statement reads.
