Obasanjo Allegedly Shreds His PDP Membership Card To Pieces

There are indications that the former president Olusegun Obasanjo has finally decided to part his ways with the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The Punch informed the ex-leader of the nation has destroyed his membership card publicly.
According to reports from PM News and TV Continental, chief Obasanjo has dumped PDP, declaring that he was no longer interested in the party.

The possible reasons behind such move are not to be clear yet.

Meanwhile, some sources discourse that the tearing of his PDP membership may have to show the attitude on the previous public face-off behind Obasanjo and the administration of the incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan.

It would be recalled that the presidency, towards the end of last week, blamed Obasanjo for nursing the ambition of heading an interim government should elections be shifted from the rescheduled march 28 date, and the need for an interim government arises.

The accusation by the presidency on Obasanjo is not unconnected with Obasanjo’s recent verbal attack on the presidency, where he accused president Jonathan of being desperate to remain in power.

Obasanjo is a founding member of the ruling party and the first democratically elected president of the PDP. He was elected twice (1999 and 2003) under the platform of the PDP as Nigeria’s president.
