Sam Amadi, a former chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), has declined the offer to serve as the Director of Research for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Presidential Campaign Council.<\/p>\n

Amadi expressed his rejection in a letter conveyed to Governor Aminu Tambuwal<\/a> of Sokoto State, who is the Director General of the campaign council.<\/p>\n

Amadi explained that he is non-partisan, adding that his rejection is not a vote of no confidence on PDP.<\/p>\n

In a statement he issued, Amadi explained that such an appointment would lead to a conflict of interest.<\/p>\n

Amadi claimed he cannot participate in such a role.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI humbly want to decline the appointment and hereby abstain from participating in such a role.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe decision to decline the offer has stemmed from the conflicts of interest emanating from various responsibilities in which I act as a leader of different platforms where political neutrality and objectivity are required of me.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor some years I have been an analyst on Arise News, which I consider one of the most strategic institutions for national development and sane deliberative democracy through analytical news reporting.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy role in that reputable media platform also requires non-partisanship, even as I am free to express my opinions.\u201d<\/p>\n
