The stand-off between Plateau PDP and politician seeking to rejoin the party appears to be escalating to higher levels. News reaching ViewPointNigeria indicates that Plateau PDP has sounded a warning to defectors to desist from using PDP logos on their posters and wait until they are fully welcomed back into the party.

In a statement signed by the secretary of the Party, Pam Sale -the secretary issued a stern warning to Jimmy Cheto, Joshua Dariye, Jonathan Sheni, John Alkali, Pauline Tallen and others. 

Reacting to this development,  one of the aspirants, Engineer Jimmy Cheto said PDP belonged to all and is not a property of anybody or group, adding that the position of the party in Plateau State was a clear indication that somebody wanted to play God in Plateau politics.

Cheto said,  “Governor Jang is not the owner of the PDP in Plateau State, the party belong to everyone of us, if he has anything against me in particular he should go court. I return to the party in line with the constitution, I applied through my ward and was accepted. So why all the noise that I have not formally returned?”

“What is good for the goose is also good for the gander, Governor Jonah Jang left PDP some years back for ANPP to contest for the governorship election and returned to PDP after the election without any condition attached, we were all in PDP then, he was willingly  accepted. Why should our own be different. He cannot convince anybody including my supporters that I have not return to the party. By the grace of God the National Secretariat will be in the state next week to receive everybody.” 

Investigations by ViewPointNigeria indicates that high level intrigues are going on at the PDP National level, with the Chairman of the PDP particularly irked by the refusal of the State PDP to accept returnees and therefore was concluding plans to send a high powered delegation to come and receive the returnees.
