Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, the National Chairman of PDP, described the members of the splinter group, which called itself the New PDP and led by Alhaji Abubakar Baraje, as impostors.
The PDP Chairman spoke during a press conference in Abuja, on September 4, 2013, Wednesday. Tukur in company with other members of the party's National Working Committee (NWC) threatened to declare the seats of members of the New PDP in the National Assembly vacant.
Tukur said: “There is only one lawfully recognised PDP and I am firmly in charge. Let me state categorically that the PDP as the sole custodian of the sacred mandate of over 160 million Nigerians and who in the last 14 years has lifted high the banner of democracy will not fold its arms while some undemocratic and unpatriotic elements destroy our common destiny by causing divisions and confusion among the people.
