Mohammed, who was recently named the vice-chairman of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council had sent protest letter with reference number, GH/OFF/09/V.I, and dated November 3, 2022, claiming that he was “excluded from the activities of the PCC” as it relates to his office.
The letter addressed to the party chair, read in part, “I was deliberately sidelined from the reach-out campaign of the PCC in Kaduna, which interacted with major stakeholder groups and the northern political establishments such as the Arewa Consultative Forum, Northern Elders’ Forum, Sadauna Foundation, Arewa Research and Development Progress, etcetera.”
The governor said their major discussions during the visit were issues relating to the progress of the party.
