A defeated Senator on the platform of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna in the last election, Ahmed Aruwa. has called on the party members nationwide to work closely to facilitate the party’s rejuvenation in order to reclaim power at all levels in 2019.
Aruwa asked Nigerians not to write-off PDP yet, adding that the party still has the muscle to retake power from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2019.
“That APC defeated our party in the 2015 elections in the state and federal levels is not enough grounds to write-off the party.“
The former Senator, who spoke to newsmen after a meeting of the party’s stakaholders in Kaduna State, said that PDP would continue to remain relevant and organised in spite of the defeat.
“Our members are also working assidiously to achieve the established goal of a formidable opposition party.”
According to him, PDP still has hybrid leaders with requisite experience to provide Nigerians with a more focused leadership, adding that the party was strengthening its structures to maintain its large number of supporters and attract more, ahead of the 2019 elections. [myad]
