A member of the People Democratic Party, PDP, Segun Sowunmi, has said A member of the People Democratic Party, PDP, Segun Sowunmi, has advised the party to do everything and bring back the Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Peter Obi, into its fold.

Sowunmi gave the advice on Friday while playing host to Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’.

DAILY POST reports that Obi left the PDP in May 2022 for the Labour Party, reportedly complaining of massive bribing of delegates and vote buying during the party’s presidential primary.


Obi also cited the existence of a party clique collaborating against him.

However, three years down the line, Sowunmi urged the PDP to work to bring Obi back.

‘’One of the people who was a PDP member, a South eastern man who felt based on the balance of play that the South-East was excluded, Peter Obi, was allocated 6.2 million votes, you lose the election, you run to the Supreme Court you lose, at least you were adjudged to have lost.

“Any deep-thinking, fair-minded Nigerian man who is in the political party called the PDP ought to know that the greatest, necessary next step is to have the conversation about: ‘How do you bring Peter back’ now that the energy driving him is organic,’’ Sowunmi said.

The PDP is said to have been embroiled in crisis since the 2023 presidential election, in which its candidate, Atiku Abubakar, lost to President Bola Tinubu.

After the suspension and removal of Iyorchia Ayu, Ambassador Umar Damagum, who was originally the Deputy National Chairman (North), was appointed acting chairman.

Meanwhile, efforts by the North Central zone to replace him with a substantive chairman have created deep divisions within the party.

Similarly, the position of National Secretary has become the subject of a legal battle between Anyanwu and Ude-Okoye, pushing the agenda to replace Damagum.

Sowunmi said the internal wrangling and sudden spring in defections to the All Progressives Congress, APC, are self-inflicted and should have been sorted out a while back.

“There is a level of activity that you can blame your bullies for, but there is a certain level of recurring, continuous lack of creativity that you have you have to hold yourself responsible for.

“One of the things that people do is fall prey to the frail nature of President Bola Tinubu. I know him for his intellectual capacity. He will look frail, but his brain is that of a giant, so most times people underestimate him to their own peril.

‘’The painful thing is that my own side is choosing to pretend that it is an easy material to defeat in politics. What do they know that he doesn’t know,” he asked.

Correct one from a PDP Man

Keep deceiving your self. Tinubu has nothing to offer

The bitter ones will soon invade this thread with insults and hateful comment

That's just the truth. I wish they could bring him back and pair him with Atiku again. However I still feel the southwest should complete their own 8yrs

They are from the same region,I bet if Tinubu was from another region,his tune will be different

Toor

I can see how his giant brain landed Nigeria where it is today

Would have called him Megamind, just that unlike him, Megamind retraced his steps in the end and atoned for his past misdeeds!

You need to get eagle eyes to see his giant brain, you can see how many of your party members have decamped and still decamping because they saw what you failed to see. As you are making online noise, some PDP and LP are already formalizing decamping to APC because they could see well other than hatred you are seeing
