The Atiku Support Organisation (ASO), a support group of
Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),
says it has dissolved its structures across the country.
In a statement on Thursday, Abubakar Kabir Babawo, ASO
director-general, said the structures were dissolved to enable the organisation
restructure before the general election in February.
The polls are less than 40 days away.
Babawo said the national leadership of the organisation
would ensure that members are fully committed to the objectives of the
organisation.
“After carrying out a holistic assessment of the Atiku
Support Organisation, and in particular the very crucial state leadership, the
executive management of ASO has decided to dissolve all state structures and
ASO liaison officers with immediate effect,” the director-general said.
“A sole administrator in each state will be appointed within
five working days to manage its affairs while restructuring is underway.
Liaison officers remain permanently dissolved.
“This decision was well thought out and executed to create
room for the necessary restructuring of the organization, for better delivery
ahead of the February elections. Atiku Support Organization, the foremost
support group management body, and major youth mobilization vehicle, has
consistently played an outstanding role in promoting the noble objectives of
His Excellency and PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and it aims to
continue to do so.
“To safeguard and promote its mandate, it will continue to
do all that is necessary in ensuring its members remain fully committed to its
objectives.
“All state chapters and their coordinators and deputies, in
particular, will be given priority to return back to their positions based on
the following criteria; loyalty, honesty, and commitment, track record of
competence, leadership skills and capacity.
“Let me also affirm that all ward, local government, and
zonal structures remain valid. Where members have been found to meet the
criteria, they may be re-appointed, while suitable replacements will be made
where required.”
Babawo thanked members of the group and urged them to ensure
that the former vice-president wins the presidential election.
