Abdul Salam Saadia, chairman of PD's North Buton district executive board, and Surahman, chairman of the party's North Kolaka district branch, said here Saturday they had made the call on behalf of the party's 12 regional executive boards in Southeast Sulawesi.
They said the turmoil that had recently hit the Democrat Party, especially internal moves to unseat PD Chairman Anas Urbaningrum, was related to politicking acts by Marzuki.
Citing an instance of Marzuki's politicking, Salam said , when the House speaker was abroad four days ago, he sent a short text message to party chief patron Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono suggesting the preparation of candidates who could replace Anas Urbaningrum as party chairman.
Last January 23, Salam said, Marzuki in his capacity as a member of the party's advisory board, held a meeting at a certain location in Jakarta to name four PD cadres as candidates to replace Anas Urbaningrum.
"Marzuki's recent politicking acts can no longer be tolerated because they have caused great anxiety among party cadres and damaged the party's image." Salam said.(IGT)
