The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has disclosed that it has commenced efforts to ensure that some of its former chieftains now in the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, return to its fold.
National Secretary of the PDP, Prof. Wale Oladipo, disclosed this to newsmen in Ile-Ife, Osun State, Friday. He hinted that the party has reached out to many of its aggrieved members, especially those who have defected to other political parties.
Oladipo noted that the reconciliation committee recently set up by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party will meet with all former members in the APC and other political parties before the next general elections, to ensure that the PDP wins in all parts of the country.
This, he said would ensure the victory of President Goodluck Jonathan in the February presidential poll and also brighten the chances of the PDP in other elections.
Oladipo expressed optimism that those who have left the PDP for personal and political reasons would soon rejoin the party, going by the reconciliation efforts of the leaders of the party.
He specifically stated that the crisis in the Ondo State chapter of the PDP has been resolved, and the two factions have agreed to work together.
Oladipo who condemned the APC presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, urged Nigerians to support Jonathan in his second term ambition, because he means well for the nation.
According to him, “General Buhari is too old to rule Nigeria. He cannot be compared with President Jonathan. He is too strict and harsh for Nigerians, while Jonathan is meek, humble and dedicated to the cause of democracy and good governance.
