There was no PDP in the 70s and 80s when buhari and his fellow northerners were wrecking havoc on the economy.
you are right to some degree but when power returned to democracy PDP failed to lay the solid foundation we deserved. That 1999 constitution and PDP role is what we are suffering now

What is painful are not the oppressions of the oppressors but those who oppressed and are ignorant of it.

Does it means PDP has no value to promote/sell to the nation, why concerned about nPDP or saraki et al that messed up Jonathan personality and self confidence? This is poor politicking, even if those guys rejoined PDP, they can't still win APC.

Very useless, stupid and empty statement from a useless and group of idiots that call themselves the PDP! Which PDP member is being tried for treason? The idiot that released this statement failed to provide any clue as to who exactly is undergoing persecution and for what. The most annoying part of this nonsense is that you'll find illiterates and idiots that will come on this thread and scream nonsense. Its just disgusting!

So what should we do?

Carry placards and run the length and breath of the country while your children enjoy your stolen wealth (our commonwealth?

Risk our lives for you just because of 2k empowerment money.

Why did you not chase APC while you in power, or who asked you to steal in the first place.

This is your problem, deal with it. And if God willing you get into power come 2019, you will use your brain.

The pdp people that released this press statement had people like you in mind when they released it. They want to appeal to the illiterate, wicked and easily deceived members of our society. People who don't know their left from their right. People who enjoy being cheated out of their patrimony and birth right. People who don't mind N100 and tee shirts from people who steal billions from them. People like you.

PDP Press Conference


APC, FG Commence Total Clampdown on Opposition

The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), after due consideration of the state of the nation, particularly the clampdown on opposition and dissenting voices, states as follows;

The PDP alerts all Nigerians that the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its Federal Government have commenced a vicious and direct clampdown of major opposition leaders, perceived political opponents and individuals with interests and views that are divergent to those of their Presidential aspirant, perhaps, candidate, President Muhammadu Buhari, ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The clampdown is tailored to silence opposition as well as those who refused to join or support the APC in their unlawful design to emasculate other political parties, undermine our laws and electoral system, foist a one-party state and perpetuate their incompetent, dysfunctional and anti-people rule on our nation.

It is instructive to inform that our leaders, particularly, our National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, have been receiving threats since the PDP filed a petition to the United Nations and the Commonwealth of Nations, detailing documented threats to democracy by the APC and its Federal Government, abuse of human rights, mass killings, extra-judicial executions, persecution of opposition and unabated constitutional violations.

The PDP is aware of clandestine plots against key opposition leaders, particularly, members of the PDP National Working Committee, some dissenting members of the APC, members of the civil society, opinion leaders, journalists and bloggers, who refuse to succumb to intimidation and that such persons have already been listed and currently being trailed by agents of the state.

This has become manifest in the plot to rope members of “nPDP”, especially those in the National Assembly, into gun-running and murder charges just because they came out to voice their opposition to the APC government’s constitutional violations and executive brigandage in the running of our nation’s affairs.

The PDP wants Nigerians and the international community to know those to hold responsible should PDP leaders, as well as other members of the opposition start falling victims of untoward situations like assassinations, unexplained accidents, inexplicable "armed robbery” attacks, high profile abduction and sudden disappearances.

These include wanton arrest, manhandling and detention of opposition leaders on trumped-up charges, as well as illegal invasion of their homes and businesses by agents of the state.

Apart from allegations of corruption, there are also plots to clamp down and detain opposition leaders for charges bordering on treason and the PDP is also aware that some compromised judicial officers have been enlisted to give convictions and jail members of opposition as well as dissenting voices, on flimsy grounds.

Moreover, we know that the APC is fixated with the PDP because of the renewed popularity of our party among Nigerians, as the inevitable vehicle to return power to the people, restore democracy, national cohesion and safeguard our territorial integrity, come 2019.

The PDP’s response to all these plots is that we are not cowed. Nigeria belongs to all of us and our laws on political engagements are very clear. The PDP, as a party committed to democracy and freedom will continue to uphold the inalienable rights of our citizens to free speech, political association and to politically aspire to any position in the land, including the Presidency.

Our party, therefore, urges all Nigerians to be alert, united and remain resolute in their decision to collectively defend our democracy and its tenets, constitutionally guaranteed personal freedom and the rule of law in our nation.

Why was PDP unable to clamp down on opposition?
Because of weak leadership.

If Jonathan were to be OBJ in 2015, Buhari would not become president of Nigeria in 2015.

Sorry PDP, it's not easy to regain power when a Fulani is in power.

You're the illiterate here.

To believe an illiterate man with more cows than books who rode into power in a cloud of lies would be a solution to Nigeria's problem speaks volume of how just senseless you and your sorts are.

And just so you know I'm not a party person. Because someone criticises your beloved government doesn't mean they identify with any established opposition. Such persons are just reasonable.
