Comrade Iliya Abdullahi, a member of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) in Plateau State, has accused the party's presidential candidate, Peter Obi, of taking sides in the controversy surrounding the party's governorship ticket. Abdullahi expressed concern over Obi's apparent association with Alfred Ali Dapal, a governorship aspirant whose emergence has deepened divisions within the party.
This comes as Dapal, who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) following internal strife, contests the NDC's governorship nomination while the party's recognized candidate, Da Jonathan Sunday Akuns, struggles to gain support. The situation has been further complicated by Akuns reportedly receiving backing from the NDC National Chairman, while Dapal has initiated legal action challenging Akuns' claim to the governorship ticket.
