The Governors said “the invasion of the party headquarters today by Ahmed Ali Gulak who reportedly assumed the chairmanship of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) is regrettable and condemnable.
“We take cognizance of the judgment by the court in Abuja which ordered the acting chairman to vacate office for any other person from the North-East zone of Nigeria.
