Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo has backed out of the move to end the
raging crisis in the ruling PDP as it became obvious the Presidency and
the leadership of the G-7 governors have failed to honour the peace
terms reached by all the stakeholders in Abuja.
"From all indications, both the presidency with the party leadership and the seven governors are not ready and willing to embrace peace. They are poised to fight to the end but this would never help the party. The party elders have done their best by intervening in the dispute, but the two camps are not listening, and so the likes of Obasanjo have given up."
