Chairman of Plateau state PDP, Damishi Sango and Deputy Chairman, Amos Gombi Goyol, have been suspended by the party over suspected siphoning of funds meant for running the 2019 presidential election bid of the party in the state. Among the accusations levelled against them is the diversion of over N9.8 million naira meant for IDPs in the state. A letter signed by 16 members of the party's State Working Committee, stated that Chris Hassan, Vice Chairman, Northern Zone PDP, will take over as the state's party chairman.

A part of the letter reads:

“Sango and Goyol have been suspended because they could not account for the resources sent to the state for Presidential elections.“The chairman concealed the amount sent by the Presidential Campaign Committee and created a fake template used as sharing formula unknown to the state party structure.

“About N5 million raised and saved by the party to help IDPs relieve their pains were also not accounted for up till this moment. No mention has been made of the funds and it is worthy to note that Goyol is the party’s Chairman Committee on IDPs.“Also, about N4.8 million meant for PDP Plateau State retreat was equally not accounted for by the Chairman and the Deputy Chairman,”
