So the East founded PDP but Afonja was their first president and the Hausas now control it.

Who should really be ashamed now ?

Among all the founding members of.PDP, it's only the Igbos you can recall .



[b] A group of politicians under the auspices of the All Politicians Summit convened a meeting in 1997 to discuss the way out of what was fast becoming a festering dictatorship.
That meeting, led by Dr. Alex Ekwueme was
brutally dispersed by the security apparatus of
the Sani Abacha's regime. Dr. Ekwueme
undeterred by the brutish antics of the regime
continued rallying key political figures of different ideological persuasions under a new platform called Institute of civil society.
In the midst of all this confusion, a group of
political leaders, eighteen of them in the first
instance and later thirty-four decided to "dare the lion in his den". This group known as the G-34 later formed the nucleus and rallying point of the associations that formed what is today, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Some of the founding members of the G-34 which later became PDP are Chief Alex Ekwueme, Alhaji Abubakar Rimi, Chief Audu Ogbe, Chief Sunday Awoniyi, Alhaji Adamu Ciroma, Alhaji Lawal Kaita,
Alhaji Sule Lamido, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Chief Solomon Lar, Iro Alhaji Abubakar, and Alhaji Dan Musa.
Others are: Professor Ango Abdullahi, Alhaji
Tanko Yakasai, Ambassador Aminu Wali,
Ambassador Yahaya Kwande, Professor Jibril
Aminu, Professor Iya Abubakar, Alhaji Bello Kirfi, Chief Barnabas Gemade, Professor Daniel Saror, Dr. Sulaiman Kumo, Iyochia Ayu, Chief Tom Ikimi, Alhaji Isiyaku Ibrahim, Senator Walid Jibril, Dr. Garba Nadama, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, Chief Abubakar Olusola Saraki, Alhaji Sani Zangon Daura, Chief Antony Aneni, Alhaji Musa Musawa,
Chief Bola Ige, Chief Jim Nwobodo, Professor
Jerry Gana, Colonel Ahmadu Ali [/b] .

CoolFreeday:
you have a point. I dislike PDP because of the men at the top and those playing to run while i like APC just because of the man at the TOP, PMB.

Alariiwo:
Adeniran will rebrand PDP and bring new hands on board for proper opposition to APC.. not the nonsense Fayose and Wiked are doing.

Stop being pained.. Start getting used to it

bkool7:
You forgot that PDP's first and longest serving president is Afonja and PDP can't smell presidency without his endorsement .

Afonjas don't usually keep all their eggs in one basket , you know .

CoolFreeday:
I dislike anything PDP, if they like they can have 5 chairmen or better still appoint my father as their chairman, I WILL NOT WASTE MY VOTE ON PDP

Alariiwo:
Stop being pained.. Yorubas have outsmarted you once again.

Only one candidate left to sail to smooth victory.

NgeneUkwenu:
Useless Party...Wike Has Finally Buried The Party, While the idiotic ipob miscteants are AthiefCulating and feeding on the carcass!

At this point, President Muhammadu Buhari May Just Be Reelected unopposed in 2019..

Alariiwo:
Look at this man o..why you dey show your logo?

Everyone knows who pigs image represent. Dilector Kanu bestowed it himself on you guys

Alariiwo:
No it's not done that way.

In politics, you draw your friends close and your enemies even closer. By so doing you will always be ontop of whatever plots they make.

With Adeniran as Chairman, Wike is finished, same for thise SE governors openly supporting Secondus. It's game over for all of them.

Alariiwo:
You sef see am?

They think Yorubas are dull but we pass them.

Alariiwo:
Who said anything about joining a useless party.

We enjoy keeping our options open. Afterall one of ours Fayose and FFK kept PDP alive in coma.

Alariiwo:
Atikuchukwu e-rats how market?

honey001:
We don't put all our eggs in one basket..... It's called Political Strategy 001

chuksanambra:
Dimeji Bankole, FHR speaker under PDP
Olu Obasanjo, President under PDP
Patricia Etteh, Speaker under PDP

When Abia n Imo were under PPA and Anambra was under APGA, Five SW states were with PDP.

Whatever you think you are today, you're far behind others.

honey001:
When we tell them that SW sabi politics, they will call us different names....

wristbangle:
South West didn't support OBJ in 1999 he won
South West supported OBJ in 2003 he won
South West supported Yaradua in 2007 he won
South West supported Goodluck in 2011 he won
South West didn't support Goodluck in 2015 he lost

That's 4/5 as well

CrtlAltDel:
Please back this up with fact and figures of how each region voted….. Then you can come here and beat your chest

bloodmoneyspita:
the same Fayose and FFK that you Yoruba guys have been calling mad men is now the oeople you are attaching to, hmm time flies.

Jesusloveyou:
how are Igbos ill-treated?
This government has built more roads in the east than north.
East benefit in school children feeding program than north.

Tell me what other region are benefiting more than the east

cstr1000:
Who cares?

How does refuting their obvious lie change anything?

donbrowser:
Daddy Freeze is talking because he is not using his degree to push wheelbarrow. If that was the case, he would say amen to that prayer even before Adeboye finished.

konoplyanka:
But you have been crying betrayal. Are you just coming to your senses? Osus and double speak.

BafanaBafana:
From comments here, it will be only fair to say igbos don't deserve positions in the current APC government.

rhemmiedream:
Does it change the fact that the most vocal supporters of Athiefkuchukwu are remnants of the Python dance

You can even come from Daura. No one cares

Alariiwo:
It's a two way thing miser.

It's either SW gets chairmanship or VP slot in PDP.. one of the two is certain.

we'll see who will wail tire.

konoplyanka:
But you enjoyed the noise. no one from the so called SS SE dared to muster a word against buhari. not even akpabio's voice was heard. even your ebonyin pdp governor sings the praise of buhari.

where is olisa metu?

imam07:
your fucking Gej caused it. He bleeped up with the West. He tot west did not have muscle to weigh him down,and west totally destroyed him together with the party. Blame your man not the West.
