President Goodluck Jonathan's men have suggested that Governors Rotimi Amaechi and Jonah Jang should both step down as factional chairmen of the Nigerian Governors Forum and give way for Isa Yuguda, a man that is known to be loyal to President Jonathan.
But the aggrieved governors have insisted that it is either Amaechi or no one:
Consequently, Obasanjo's trouble-shooting mission has
ended in a deadlock as the governors failed to reach any kind of
compromise with President Jonathan's men.
Unable to bring peace to the fold of the bickering governors, the second move by the former president to make peace between the governors and President Goodluck Jonathan and his family, it was learnt, has thus been postponed indefinitely.
Meanwhile, Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State has offered reasons why majority of governors in the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, NGF, backed Governor Chibuike Amaechi against Jonah Jang in the NGF chairmanship election. He said the governors do not trust Jang to robustly defend their interests.
