Over 3,000 Delegates Gather For PDP’s Unity Meeting Ahead Of Convention by Beress(m): 6:38pm On Aug 11, 2017 |
Over 3000 members of the Peoples Democratic Party are expected to be in attendance at its unity convention in Abuja this Friday at 6pm. The meeting which holds at the party’s national secretariat Abuja is to prepare the party for its non-elective convention selected for Saturday, August 12, at Eagles Square Abuja. The Friday’s convention is also meant to afford the delegates an opportunity to celebrate the Supreme Court’s victory. Earlier on Wednesday the party had held a committee meeting at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja, where the Convention Committee chairman, Governor of Delta State, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, and his subcommittee chairmen, deliberated on matters concerning the successful conduct of the convention, where principal officers of the party will be chosen. Also, addressing a world press conference on the convention, national publicity secretary of PDP, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, had said that delegates from the six geo-political zones are already in town for the big event. According to Adeyeye, the convention is a unity gathering of the PDP family which the international community will monitor. He said, “It will be a carnival-like convention, the like of which we have never seen before. We have delegates from the Africa Union, the United Nations and the rest of the international community. “This unity convention is going to be a celebration for the PDP. I can tell you that if the decision of the Supreme Court had gone the other way, there would have been no PDP today.” He also called on Nigerians to be wise so as not to fall victims of the All Progressives Congress propaganda. “Nigerians remember with nostalgia life under the PDP and they are yearning for it to come back. I challenge anybody to deny that the achievements of this great party are comparable to any other in Nigeria. “We bequeathed the largest economy in Africa to the APC but they squandered it within six months to one year,” Adeyeye adding that the two years administration of President Muhammadu Buhari remains “the worst era in the history of Nigeria.” Dubbing APC’s fight against corruption as “a witch-hunting of the opposition,” he said, “The only thing you need to do today is to cross over to the APC and all your sins would be forgiven. All APC members are saints and others are sinners.” The party’s non elective convention is coming on the heels of the recent Supreme Court judgment which settled the long drawn conflict in the party which had almost threatened to tear it apart. https://www.ripplesnigeria.com/3000-delegates-gather-pdps-unity-meeting-ahead-non-elective-convention/amp/ Lalasticlala

Adeyeye adding that the two years administration of President Muhammadu Buhari remains “the worst era in the history of Nigeria.”FACT. Can anyone dispute the economic hardships, insecurity/killings most especially by Fulani militia terrorists and secessionist agitations across the country under present administration It's surely unrivalled in the history of this country. 4 Likes |

Truth be told, PDP is far more better organized than APC During PDP’s era, things were moving fine as a result of the sound Economic policies being put in place... Yes there was corruption, but tell me, which government in the world is corrupt free? Since APC took over it has been from one excuse to another, from one lie to another, from one propaganda to another... No concrete plan on ground! Only God will know the level of corruption and mismanagement going on currently 2 Likes |

Corrupt though, But PDP is so organized and matured. It carries a semblance of a POLITICAL party and not like the broom-waiving demons of lies and propaganda that practise politics like kids. Nice one. 2 Likes |
