Eight members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Caretaker Committee in Taraba State have distanced themselves from a list of the newly elected state executive committee allegedly released by former caretaker chairman, Dr. Victor Fallack.
In a joint statement signed on Sunday, the members said the list being circulated by Dr. Fallack, in which he reportedly named himself chairman and included some of them as members was compiled without their knowledge or consultation.
The signatories stressed that they do not recognize the list and are formally dissociating themselves from it to avoid confusion within the party.
According to the statement, the action taken by the former chairman was done “single-handedly without consulting any member of the Caretaker Committee.”
The committee members said they decided to set the record straight in the interest of the party and to maintain peace and stability in Taraba State.
They reaffirmed their commitment as party stakeholders and citizens to always promote unity and peaceful political engagement.
The group also used the opportunity to commend party delegates across the state for their conduct during the recent ward, local government, and state congresses.
“We want to thank all our delegates for the matured way they conducted themselves from the wards to the local government areas and the state congresses,” the statement added.
The signatories are Terna Anzamber, Hikon Hosea, Hamisu Maigari, Zubulun Dauda Hamman Yakubu Balutu, Hauwa Adam Imam, Ali Musa , and Polycarp Apura.
The signatories reiterated their commitment to the unity of the party and called on members across the state to remain calm while efforts continue to strengthen internal democratic processes.
