PDP Appoints Acting BOT Chairman

Former minister of Defence, Haliru Mohammed has been named the new acting chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees.

Haliru Mohammed was the director of president Jonathan’s campaign

The endorsement of Haliru Mohammed, according to Premium Times, took place at a meeting at the Aso Rock presidential villa, in Abuja on Monday night, May 25.
The crisis rocking the party following its abysmal outing in the 2015 general election resulted in former Chairman of the BOT, Tony Anenih, resigning.
Earlier, the party’s national chairman, Adamu Mu’azu, stepped down after weeks of running battles with party chieftains who faulted him for the party’s poor outing at the polls.
Mr. Mohammed was once the national chairman of the party. He was also appointed by President Jonathan to oversee his declaration for re-election.
Haliru Mohammed’s endorsement may come as a surprise to many who thought the position was reserved for President Jonathan as suggested by Tony Anenih in his letter of resignation.
