Dear Distinguished Leaders and Members of our great party - PDP,

It is very neccesary at this time for members of our party to rise above the bickering and shenanigans prior to our primary elections and accept ALL our candidates NOT from the caucuses they belong to but as PDP CANDIDATES and to join hands to support them to win the general elections. It is also pertinent to put on record that our Gubernatorial candidate and his Deputy are putting in all efforts to ensure that PDP wins the next election in Lagos state. Worthy of mentioning is the ongoing visitation to the 245 electoral wards in the state, out of which 95 is completed and not just visits, but holding strategic meetings with key stakeholders in the state towards securing their support, a feat that is new to candidates of any political party in the history of Lagos state.

Presidential Campaign Rally held on Monday December 5 was an eye opener to the challenges awaiting the party in the state and has put to fore the need to double our efforts and to come together to enable us defeat the ruling APC government in the state come 2023. The event, despite the initial challenges, came out successfully, all thanks to the initiative of the Lagos PCC, which swung into action immediately and averted the planned evil by the ruling party with the support of their cronies within Lagos PDP of which is this so called whistle blower, who has never seen anything good in Lagos PDP, despite claiming to be a member of the party.
The present leadership of Lagos PDP is consistent in it's open policy, objective and accountable in all their dealings.

Members should be adequately informed that our Gubernatorial candidate had little or nothing to do with the arrangements for the rally neither were the Lagos PCC. The National PCC made all the arrangements from the national office and only delegated the mobilisation of members to the Lagos PCC. The major challenges to the rally was the glitches experienced in transporting our Members to the venue which was nothing but a deliberate action to sabotage the Monday rally, as transporters contracted were not only paid up front, but also signed agreements to convey our people to the venue.

Upon realization of this development, the leadership of Lagos PCC immediately swung into action to source for an alternative by releasing funds to stakeholders in the affected Local Governments, a development that eventually brought about the success we recorded on Monday.

This is the first time the ruling party who were bent on truncating our Monday rally will be so jittery, and that’s because of the continued growth in our candidates popularity and acceptance. The money paid to this transport operators where glitches were experienced had since been recovered and deposited in the PCC accounts for future use.

The myopic mind of the whistle blower claimed that our Gubernatorial candidate *JANDOR* and some individuals mentioned in the campaign of calumny write-up as being sole dictator in the party in the state can only be laughable and a pointer to the shallowness of his thinking ability and also an exposure of his aim which is self adulation and greediness which CANNOT be allowed to fester destruction to the efforts of all our candidates who are working assiduously to win their elections.

On the issue of LAGOS FOR LAGOS claim, we believe that our members can read in between the lines of the writer's aim to discredit our Gubernatorial candidate because he is of a different caucus and he is still bitter over the outcome of our party primary elections. We urge our members not to entertain any divisive narrations towards segregating Lagos PDP along caucuses and to come together to enable us confront our common opponent APC in the next election, to win and form a government in Lagos state come May 29 2023 by the power of the Almighty God. Amen.

On the welfare of the members in attendance, 12 Local Governments got their snacks at the venue, handed over to all their LGA Chairmen in presence of other LGA stakeholders. Those distributing it had to stop when the arena became tensed and rowdy, moved the snack out and distributed to the remaining 8 Local Governments next Morning.

On the issue of mobilisation and logistics, those who are close to how the mobilisation logistics were distributed will be able to see the sinister aim of the whistle blower with the way he muddle up figures which shows his claims were just figments of imagination of a confused person. The PCC ensured that the amount allocated to each LGA were given to the respective chairpersons and their Candidates, Youth and Women leaders were present to witness the handing over of the money to ensure judicious distribution. One wonders, where this whistle blower got his information from and we challenge him to come boldly to prove his claims.

We were amused at the whistle blower's reference to the APC and LP candidate challenges to the party and we wonder if he is supporting the duo with his illusions filled write-up or he is for the PDP? We urge our members who are conversant with the whistle blower tantrums to ask him who is he working for by deliberately using illusions filled lies to cause disharmony in our party and deliberately undermining the personality of our Gubernatorial candidate? We believe the party has Leaders and they have remained a listener to all grievances with many of them amicably resolved to further strengthen our party position towards the success of the next election and we are using this opportunity to appeal to every individual and groups to channel their grievances to appropriate leaders of the party and stop further divisive attitude that is not beneficial to them or our party.

On behalf of the leadership of the PDP in Lagos State, the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), our Gubernatorial candidate and members of our great party PDP we want to once again appreciate our Presidential candidate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, GCON Waziri Adamawa for his visits to Lagos and for his promises to the people of the state and Nigeria especially and we would like to assure him that victory awaits him at the next polls in Lagos.

Once again, we appreciate all our committed members who against all odds made it to the venue of the rally.

Thank you
