Yes No Indifferent View results Plateau: Mantu's Group Moves Against Dariye From Kingsley Nwezeh in Abuja, 11.29.2004 Loyalists of Deputy Senate President, Senator Ibrahim Mantu, weekend met in Abuja in an apparent move to counter the challenge posed by plots by supporters of Governor Joshua Dariye to recall the Deputy Senate President. THISDAY checks revealed that the meeting, which was convened at the Comfort Royale Hotel, Garki 11 District of the city, deliberated on the need to set up a parallel party structure in the state. "Their aim essentially is to open a new party office or a parallel party office with the ousted chairman of the party in the state, Alhaji Abu Shandai as the chairman," said a source. The group was said to have allegedly approved the sum of N100,000 for each local government council in the state with a view to establishing party offices. "Their hope is that by setting up a parallel party structure with a view to fomenting crisis in the state, the national body will have no other option than to dissolve the party exco in the state," the source said. Those present at the meeting included Senator Ibrahim Mantu, former Minister of Science and Technology, Mrs Pauline Tallen, Mr Fidelis Tapgun, Senator Cosmas Niagwang, former gubernatorial candidate of Alliance for Democracy and sports minister, Mr Damishi Sango, former gubernatorial candidate under All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) in 1999, Mr. Jona Jang, Honourable Dam Lak, a member of the House of Representatives among others. It would be recalled that as soon as the state of emergency in Plateau State was lifted, members of the Plateau State House of Assembly threatened to recall the Deputy Senate President which prompted his response to the effect that if they desired peace, he would work for it but should they (Dariye's supporters) seek the part of war, he was "armed to the teeth."       REMAIN INFORMED WE SEND IT TO YOUR MAIL THISDAY NEWSLETTER Name E-Mail   Who We Are | THISDAY People | Contact Us © Copyright 2000-2004 Leaders & Company Limited This Site Created by White Pages Limited
