Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) campaigners got a bloody nose yesterday.

Nigerians should not return the party to power, an elder statesman said.

Second Republic Governor of old Kaduna State Alhaji Balarabe Musa believes the country would be worse off if the main opposition party is allowed to come back.

He said PDP’s 16-year administration before 2015 brought misery and underdevelopment to Nigeria, adding that the party almost ruined the economy completely with massive corruption and plunder of resources while in power.

Musa was speaking in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) from his Kaduna home.



Musa, a socialist, who was elected in 1979 on the platform of the radical Peoples Redemptio Party (PRP) but impeached in 1981 by the opposition-dominated House of Assembly, said although all was not well with the country under the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led government, Nigerians should never risk having any hope in the PDP to make things better.

To him, the PDP lacks the moral right to ask for a return to power. A credible alternative is needed to turn things around, he said.

The PDP gained momentum following the election of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar as its presidential candidate at its Port Harcourt Convention.

But octogenarian Musa, who recently relinquished the leadership of the PRP on account of age and failing health, said: ”I do not understand the hype about PDP returning to power. I just do not understand. Return to do what?

“The party that created many problems for 16 years when they were in power,? No way!

“Things are not too good in the country at the moment, but I think the country would be worse if the PDP is allowed to return. We saw what they did for 16years and they will definitely mess things up further.

“Nigerians should not trust the PDP with power. We will be disappointed.What we need in the country right now is a credible alternative that would deliver good governance and respond to our needs,” he said.

Musa said money had over the years influenced Nigerian politics, resulting in the emergence of unpopular leaders.

The former governor said Nigerians must be prepared to change the narrative by voting according to their conscience in 2019 and beyond.

He said the country was faced with a number of security and economic challenges, among others, which need the government’s creative intervention to address.

Musa suggested the economic restructuring of the country to bring back privatised public corporations under government control for more efficient services.

The former governor said the economy was being controlled by the private sector, which he said was ripping off the people with poor service delivery.

Reacting to Musa’s statement, PDP spokesman Kola Ologbodiyan, said: “Perhaps Alhaji Balarabe Musa is talking about the PDP of old, not today’s rebranded PDP, which majority of Nigerians are rallying behind.

“And because of the failure of President Muhammadu Buhari, Nigerians don’t need education or advice, from anybody, including Alhaji Musa on who to vote for.

“Nigerians are determined to rescue themselves from the hunger, starvation, low purchasing power, the killings, the needless divisions across the nation and the apathy towards governance.

“So Nigerians don’t need anybody’s education at this critical time for them to take a decision on who to vote for. They have tried Buhari and they have seen his manifest failure and they have seen that Buhari has been demystified in governance and politically deflowered.

“Nigerians at this time don’t need anybody’s help or advice to make up their mind. They have already decided on where they are going.

“And come 2019, they are going to vote en masse against Buhari, whether the Balarabe Musas of this world like it or not”.

Hehehe finally sponsors of terrorism dey show face small small. This recluse cannot comment on the widespread killings going on in Kaduna his home State or the mass murders of Shiites in his very Kaduna... Neither has he condemned the abduction of school children and girls by different militant groups in the North. Yet he can open his sewage called mouth to tell us who to and who not to vote for. I no blame am. I blame the Nigerian youths!!

My thoughts really... the dogs eating off their master's table

Click Like if you believe he should keep quiet
Click share of you believe he is right

Old man whose future was yesterday telling us whose future is tomorrow how to shape it.

Abeg swerve, and Atikulate before it's too late.

Talking about "a credible alternative", so what happens when we can't find one? Continue with the status quo? Never!

We know Atiku is corrupt maybe.

We also know that PDP is no party of saints, but we have decided to vote them like that.

Foolish Elders like this is the reason why we prefer standing with Nnamdi Kanu the man who speaks with one mouth revolving around justice than standing with people that will support blunt evil.

PDP - - -power

You hear some folks saying Don't allow Corruption to repeat itself therefore don't vote PDP into Power. I respond by telling them,

I prefer A Corrupt government that brings about Financial surplus and reduced poverty than the one that impose untold hardship and difficulty, poverty, outright Impunity into to the economy!

it seems that's what he saying that the sufferings, nepotism, killings and corruption from buhari's government should continue, this is what comes from the north, they are very selfish lot without consideration for Nigeria's interests in general.

Talk about the killings everywhere, Kaduna is in trouble for buhari's part to indulge religious biased with elrufai towing the line, voting buhari and APC is going to be catastrophic for the country.

Unending killings have been going on in Kaduna and other parts of this country,Balarabe Musa have not been heard talking or proferred any solution.

His only obsession is not returning PDP to power.So what can he said about the APC with the high profile corruption therein including the wife, son & closed cronies of the president being involved? The toga of 2015 is not going to work again.
