The Jeremiah Useni factional group of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has threatened legal action over what it termed an illegal suspension letter circulated on social media against its members across Plateau State.
The Useni group including Hon Amos Gombi , Emmanuel Macham,Aminu Zang and others threatened a legal battle against the Chairman of the state PDP Hon. Chris Hassan led Exco for instigating Local Governments Chairmen to slam purported suspension on them.
Emmanuel Macham JP Spokesman Useini group Plateau State made this available to this medium in Jos .
He said; “The suspension was alleged to be posted via social media which prompted their reaction to embark on warning the state chapter to avoid anything that can plunged the party in atmosphere of abysmal conflict .
The attention of our leaders/members has been drawn with nostalgia for illegal suspension letters in circulation especially on social media purportedly under the instructions of the illegal State executive led by one Chris Hassan which is a tacit approval of attempts to ridicule and embarrass respected leaders of the party.
“First, we hereby state CLEARLY without fear of contradiction that Plateau State doesn’t have legitimate executives at the moment,all those parading themselves have since been nullified by several courts of competent jurisdiction including the highest court of the land “Supreme Court”.
Democracy thrives on rule of law and we have vowed to ensure our party operates strictly within the ambits of law those against our principles should be patient with us that our efforts legally will not be truncated by any force in Government or out of Government.
It is common knowledge that funds belonging to our 2023 Presidential Candidate Alh Atiku Abubakar sent to Plateau State were siphoned by some very notable members of our party, with huge surprise those personalities haven’t been mentioned in the circulated illegal suspension letters, this is clearly a brutal invitation to lawlessness and chaos not just within the party but across Plateau State, this personalities who deserve to face high power disciplinary actions from the party for their roles in the gruesome defeat of our party in the Presidential elections still enjoys unlimited patronage and praises and those who work tirelessly for Alh Atiku Abubakar are being issued with letters of suspension surprisingly.
We will restore constitutionality, rule of law, fairness, justice, and equity in our party soon as the group, aspirants to 2021 state congresses, and our youths have already taken the necessary step by officially writing and putting the National headquarters on notice, intimating them of the vacuum existing in Plateau State, failure by the NWC to act and take necessary steps in dissolving the illegal structures across the state will lead to another round of unstoppable riots, court actions and our team of lawyers have been notified and place on red alert for the legal action.
Law enforcement agencies should be on high alert over a dangerous statement credited to members of political parties capable of igniting tension and crises within the state.
All steps towards enforcing the various court orders/judgments including the supreme court declaration are being put in place in case of failure from NWC soon.
We urge our supporters across the state to remain calm and forward all letters of purported suspension/report directly to us through the usual medium 24hrs of any form of harassment, intimidation, molestation etc.
