Again, Another Leading PDP Presidential Aspirant Steps Down

A 2023 Presidential aspirant on the Platform of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Mohammed Hayatudeen has bowed out of the contest.

Hayatudeen, in a statement released to newsmen on Friday night, disclosed that his reason for quitting was because the entire process had become “Obscenely monetized.”

His statement read; “I have been a keen observer of Nigerian politics for so many decades, but have not been opportuned to actively participate in party politics due to my engagements in managing critical public and private institutions, among others.”

“I have observed with great concern and sorrow the recent rapid deterioration of all aspects of our national life – characterised by increasing poverty, religious intolerance, banditry and kidnapping, monumental oil theft, corruption, mismanagement of national assets, communal and religious strifes and near collapse of public services and public institutions.”

“During my recent nationwide trips, I came face to face with angry and hungry youths, children, boys and girls abandoned by their states who ought to provide them with education and vocational training. These had become the recruiting grounds of criminals, religious and political extremists.”
