Bamanga Tukur, former National chairman of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP on Tuesday told a court that he was forced to resign.

The former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, has declared that he was forced to resign his post in order for the seven defected governors to return to the party.

Tukur, however, said that following the defection of the seven PDP governors to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2013, pressures were mounted on President Goodluck Jonathan to remove him to enable the governors’ return to the party.

In a counter-affidavit he filed to a suit instituted by an aspirant to the House of Representatives in Adamawa State, Aliyu Abuba Gurin, who is seeking to unseat the present national chairman of the party, Adamu Mu’azu, and also stop the party’s planned delegates convention, described Mu’azu’s appointment as a nullity.
