The Forum of past women leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Gombe has called on all members of the party to close ranks for the purpose of winning the  Governorship Election in the state.

The forum led by its chairperson, Ms Mole Istifanus, a former executive member of the PDP in the North East, urged the PDP governorship candidate, Alhaji Jibrin Barde, and party leaders to address alleged sidelining of critical women stakeholders in the party.

Ms Mole Istifanus had stated “The PDP in the state is now a divided house. You know a divided house is a threat to victory for a party that is really working to return to power.

“Women chieftains had been in the PDP since 2003 and had laboured hard to ensure victory for the party in previous elections.

The Forun protested that they are not being carried along in the campaigns.

Ms Mole Istifanus added: “The governorship candidate promised to work with those who did not support him during the primaries. “How can we win election if founding members are not being carried along.

“These are pioneer members. We must make amends so that we do not the election.”
