Nigeria - The acting chairman of PDP's BoT, Haliru Bello has blamed the party's current woes on its decision to adopt Goodluck Jonathan as it's 2015 presidential candidate whereas he championed the cause.

In a statement issued on Wednesday in Abuja, Mr. Bello said the choice of Mr. Jonathan was part of the problems that finally destroyed the party's chances at the polls.

He also lamented that the PDP violated its zoning formula in 2011, asserting that the violation was the genesis of the party’s crisis.

A former acting chairman of the PDP, Mr. Bello was elected as the current BoT chair after the resignation of the former chairman, Tony Anenih.

Ironically, it was Mr. Bello, a former Defense Minister, who moved the motion for the adoption of Jonathan as the party's sole presidential candidate. He had moved the motion at the party’s headquarters in Abuja during a meeting of the national Executive Committee on September 17, 2014.
