Although the principal himself did not comment openly on the public discourse of his vying again for the presidential seat, he however, did not shun his operators to desist from marketing his candidacy to the general public. He allowed the discourse, almost as though to encourage the insensitivity to the untold hardships currently bedeviling the country, the insensitivity to the astronomic inflation in everyday food prices, and the activities surrounding the day-to-day survival of Nigerians.

This insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians owing to callous greed and blind quest for power defines the group that currently holds the PDP firmly by its jugular. They are termed the “Old PDP” – the ones that refuse to embrace the future for a new PDP. They consist of the part of PDP that has refused to embrace the new realities of the changing times. In their understanding, the PDP serves solely as means to power rather than means to deliver good governance.
