It was gathered that the Kawu Baraje-led PDP have declared that the G-7 governors would give President Goodluck Jonathan a deadline on Sunday should he fail to meet their demands.

Speaking about the conditions, Kawu Baraje said contrary to insuniations, Jonathan and the G-7 governors are far from reaching any consensus. The aggrieved governors and Baraje faction tabled five demands before President Jonathan and Peace Panel head, ex-President Obasanjo.

The conditions were as follows; The sack of National Chairman, Bamanga Tukur, Return of party structure to governors in Adamawa, Rivers, Kano, and other states, Sticking to one term tenure by the President and he should forgo re-election ambition in 2015, Resolution of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF) and Rivers State crises, including the lifting of Governor Rotimi Amaechi’s suspension, and Stopping “harassment” of governors by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Out of the five conditions mentioned above, only one was met by the President as at Monday night. Baraje confirmed that the President conceded to party’s structure in the G-7 states and restoration of the structures to governors in Adamawa and Kano.

Meanwhile, talk would resume on Sunday night about other demands by the faction.

Baraje said, “We are not inching towards any accord with Jonathan on the PDP crisis. There is nothing like settlement. I can tell you that we are only discussing, but the main thing is not being discussed yet.

“So, as far as we are concerned, the struggle still continues; no retreat, no surrender. Our demands are clear and we will not give up, until our demands are met.”

Furthermore, Baraje said, “We will go back; we will partake in the talk on Sunday because we have been part of it all along.

“However, it is at the Sunday meeting that we are going to give them a deadline within which they should tell us their responses to our demands.

“Our struggle is for Nigerians and in the interest of Nigeria; it is a liberation struggle for Nigeria’s democracy.

“I want to assure our members that we will not give up on this struggle; we are not a let-down or a stooge for anybody.”
