We hear the Presidency may have possibly put Adamu Mu’azu, the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, under close watch.
According to reports, the reason for this is President Goodluck Jonathan’s supposed discomfort with his activities, following reports by members of the party that Mu’azu may be double dealing.
One of his alleged crimes is his inaction over the stoning of the President’s convoy in some states in the North, which prompted the former Governor of Bauchi State, Mallam Isa Yuguda, to say that he was not fully committed to the second term aspiration of President Jonathan.
A source from the Presidency told Punch Newspapers that: “You can see that Mu’azu has not been vociferous in his campaign for the President in the North.”
“He has never organised any rally on his own and has never attended any other except those organised by the party which were attended by the President. He has remained silent on the stoning of the President’s convoy in Taraba, Katsina and Taraba states. We have this unclear notion that he’s more interested in having a President from his region than President Jonathan returning. So, we are watching him.”
“Instead of speaking on the task ahead of the party and the campaign, Mu’azu in the full glare of the television and invited guests, lambasted the President and the party.”
