Benue State governor, Gabriel Suswam has expressed optimism that the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, would soon bounce back despite the recent defection of some members to the All Progressives Congress, APC,

Suswam told newsmen in Makurdi over the weekend that the PDP remained unperturbed despite the defection of the governors and the internal crisis currently rocking the party.

He expressed hopes that in the next few months, steps would be taken to ensure that the party wins back Nigerians’ confidence.

Suswam who lamented the defection of five governors of the PDP to the opposition, said it was not time to brood over the actions of the governors but to strategise on how to reposition the party.



He said, “What has happened about the five governors defecting to an opposition party is something that is very unfortunate.

“It is something that should not have happened if we were strategic enough. But it has happened, you can’t cry over spilt milk.

“What we need to do now is to strategise; that is my approach to politics. When you have a situation like this, you strategise by going back to the drawing board and you will be surprised at what will happen.

“There is going to be a chain of events in a few months that will clearly indicate that Nigerians will vote PDP come 2015. I have no fears at all about that”.

Suswam, who is believed to be one President Goodluck Jonathan’s ‘errand boys’, admitted that never before, since its formation, had PDP been wrecked with such profound problems.

He said, “The dimension of what is happening within the PDP is different from what has happened in the past”.
