THE Peoples Democrataic Party (PDP) has suffered set-backs to put its house in order by harmonising its contending interests amid resolve by governors of the party not to be part of the process.








The indication emerged on Tuesday when the inauguration of the PDP Reconciliation Committee billed to hold at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja was cancelled.


The two factions of PDP led by Ali Modu Sheriff and Ahmed Makarfi have been holding talks on reconciliation, and are to widen the scope by setting up an expanded Committee to bring the aggrieved members back to fold from their different factions.


Makarfi and Sheriff had after series of meetings agreed to setup a reconciliation committee of 28 members, comprising 14 persons from both camps to smoothen the peace process.


All along, the governors of PDP, led by Nyesom Wike of Rivers State and his counterpart from Ekiti, Ayodele Fayose have not been part of the peace deals struck by Makarfi and Sheriff.


Both Wike and Fayose had said they were being kept in the dark on the reconciliation efforts and hence would not be part of the talks at the instance of the factional leaders.


The issue of Ondo state governorship election, in which case Modu Sheriff has schemed Jimoh Ibrahim to upstage Hon Eyitayo Jegede as the candidate of the party is said to have signalling the cold attitude of the PDP governors towards the reconciliatory moves by Makrfi and Sheriff.


The PDP governors are said to have been discouraged with the moves by Sheriff to set up a Campaign Committee for Jimoh Ibrahim towards the governorship election in Ondo State as well as his resolve to inaugurate a parallel party executive for Delta State, despite the existence of a substantive party executive in the state.


Sheriff was yet to submit the list of his 14 members to form the 28 members peace reconciliation committee ahead of the inauguration yesterday.
